AnyClip Extends Reach of Licensed Content through Partnership with LKQD®

Over the past few years, consumers have migrated to a new set of devices for video consumption. The proliferation of quality mobile broadband such as LTE, coupled with improved device capabilities, has lead to an eightfold increase in the number of mobile videos viewed in the past three years. Today nearly half of all online video is consumed via mobile device or tablet, meaning advertisers must identify and implement compelling experiences for handheld devices to retain their share of voice. In addition to smartphones and tablets, analysts such as Parks Associates estimate that around 18 million U.S. households have some form of streaming device and predict the category will grow more than 400% by 2019.
