Let’s go to the video
It was significant news when Nielsen reported that more than 60% of U.S.
broadband Internet users watched video at home or at work as of March 2007,
which is significantly up from the 16% reported earlier in September 2006. Also
interesting and found in their recent survey study for CTAM (Cable &
Telecommunications Association for Marketing), “A Barometer of Broadband
Content and its Users”, that about a third of respondents said that watching
broadband video had increased their TV viewing time, while only 13% said it
decreased their traditional viewing time; and, an additional 32 million broadband
video users said they would consider watching more TV programs over the Internet.
In light of the continued trend of declining ratings on television, this was insightful
news for the industry. Subsequently, like with any communication vehicle which has
a huge potential of profiting from marketing and advertising budgets, there have
been a slew of many estimates on how big will this online video arena will get.
*
Emarketer estimates that U.S. online video advertising spending projected to
surpass $1 billion next year, $2 billion in 2009 and $3 billion in 2010.
*
According to an August 2007, another competitive estimate by Understanding
& Solutions via press release, reported that Internet television advertising
revenue will hit $10 billion worldwide by 2011, which is estimated to equal
18% of all Internet advertising that year, currently forecasted at about $60
billion and compared to $190 billion estimated for broadcast TV then.
"Globally, we estimate there are more than 20 billion videos being
streamed across the Web each and every month. In the US alone, active
Internet video users are streaming an average of 55 videos per month,
and this is just the beginning, [as the amount of video on the Internet is
doubling each year.]" Understanding & Solutions.
*
In a press release, iSuppli estimated worldwide online TV revenues for 2011 at
$5.8 billion, compared to $614 million in 2007.
Overall, with the increased prevalence of videos, consumers are increasingly
interested in the diversity of videos and the relative convenience of online access.
AOL's video search company, Truveo, reported that they have been experiencing
a steady increase in search queries of up to 40% month over month since 2006.
When it comes to video searching, after Google acquired YouTube last year, the

company evolved YouTube as its video-hosting site & turned Google Video into a
video-search destination. The continual debate with this process is that Google
Video searched only the videos hosted on Google sites and not videos across the
web. To-date, Google is now just one of many “start-up” competitors & established
portals that are (still) planning to establish themselves with advanced sophisticated
video-search techniques including the conversion of speech to text and detecting
multiple images that appear within a video format.
In light of all these significant trends, both investment potential & consumer viewing,
and the likelihood that commercials will sooner than later take on the online videos
format and evolve this developing industry field more, there is also increasing
concern over who will really watch videos online if they were ads, the number
of videos each will view and how long these units would/should play if ran.
Ultimately, audience reactions to these online video advertising will immediately
impact and transform how marketers & Web publishers utilize this online medium.

Let’s go to the video
(continued)
As with traditional commercial units, the length of online video ads has become a
key factor in determining how best to use the format. Hinted during the upfront
negotiations, NBC Universal recently announced that that it would not accept
online video ads longer than 15 seconds, at least to go along with short-form
content but it would continue to allow 30-second spots during full-length TV shows.
Relative to watching advertising before a free online video, the investment banking
firm, Piper Jaffray, surveyed US adult Internet users this question and the
responses split nearly equally into three groups: the 30% who are not willing, the
31% who said it depends on the content and the 39% (combined) who are
willing (with 25% only willing depending on the length of the ad). That being
said, in the same survey, 79% of Internet users said they are not willing to pay,
even for long-form, professionally produced content such as TV shows or movies.
The key question that still remains outstanding from this survey - - would viewers
accept video ads in exchange for free content?
Overall, it is believed that most Internet TV content will be free to users over the 2
years. Viewing will take place mainly on PCs and handheld devices as early
adopters have already networked their Internet TV to their main TV screens. After
this brief assimilation period, it is predicted that it will be about another 3-4 years
before the technology is widely accepted as a conventional system for delivering
content to the living room, both commercial and non-commercial.
Within this transition period which is coincidentally in line with the Digital TV
conversion by 2009, the opportunity will be substantial for whoever finds the
solution of making that video connection, as more & more marketers will couple or
address their ads with the respective videos returned, as is currently done in text
searches. Notably, as Google improves its video-search function and video sites it
did not use to detect (i.e., ABC.com's Flash player), content is becoming even
more relevant. comScore has reported that U.S. Internet users initiated nearly 7
billion video streams per month, with the average streamer consuming about 2
videos each day. These stats reflect that more than 106.5 million people, or 60% of
all U.S. Internet users are in play. Though an interested viewer could search again
(and again) and continually refine keywords until the final drill-down search results
help locate what is wanted in the end, the total time it currently takes is still in
question, and illustrates the immaturity of the video-search market. To-date, no one
has really cracked the code yet on how to sift through these the vast Net of videos
and it is also still unclear how video search engines intend to profit from video
search and differentiate itself from the $7 billion text-search industry.
With the development of conventional web search engines, the size of the Internet
has become more manageable for the average user. Internet search engines
evolved the way we relate to The Net and its use has certainly become a important
tool in reaching consumers; as traditional communication vehicles are also adopting
the use of the WWW for its distribution capabilities as well as for its Web 2.0
facilities. That being said, the increasing digital video availability and digital video
downloaded & shared on the web are “new” factors that are pushing the Net onto
another cyber-plateau of even more content access and an even bigger
knowledgebase potential. As a result, effective search of videos has become a
significant issue as it is anticipated to, once again, dramatically evolve the way we
all relate to The Net.
Watch this space for further developments, including advanced functionality.

Marketplace
NETWORK TV: STEADY & TIGHT
In spite of having to continually make-good on the under-delivery of target demo
impressions, especially ABC, CBS & NBC, conditions remain tight as 3Q scatter inventory is
booked pretty solid across the key dayparts. Key contributors to this competitive summer
seasonality remain Auto, Fast Foods, Financial services, FMCG, Movies & DVDs,
Telecommunications, and Retail - BTS.
NETWORK CABLE: ACTIVE & TIGHT
Negotiations for next season's schedules have been completed and commitments are
undergoing strategic considerations & planning. Similar to national broadcast, the medium
remains tight as 3Q scatter continues to be active from seasonal sectors looking to makegood on planned weight gaps, including (like national) Auto, Fast Foods, Financial services,
HBA, Movies & DVDs, Telecommunications/Wireless, and Retail.
SPOT TV: MIXED CONDITIONS BUT STILL NEGOTIABLE
The move to finalize strategic plans for Iowa & New Hampshire, as well as posturing for
respective political debates in the Southern markets, have become apparent; and, activity
tides for the medium are changing across the US especially for most local category sectors
hoping to lock in schedules sooner than later.
RADIO: MIXED CONDITIONS & NEGOTIABLE
Though, like local TV, markets which have been targeted by politicos have become tighter
compared to other major DMAs, overall conditions for the medium are mixed across the U.S.
and inventory is remain available for negotiation and last minute scheduling.
MAGAZINES: MIXED ACTIVITY
Publication issues are all about the traditional holidays as closings are coming in towards
November monthlies and early September weeklies. With the season of gift giving nearing,
category sectors (and their gift cards) getting more active include Fashion & Luxury goods,
Consumer electronics, Computers & Software, Telecommunications & Wireless, FMCGs,
Retail, and HBA.
