Tittels: The Ever Expanding World of Live Video Streaming Services
I'm not afraid to
admit that I've spent my fair share of time sitting in front of my computer recently
intensely watching live coverage through my live video streaming services.
During the recent Olympic games I spent at least three hours a day in front of
my computer watching hockey, curling and skiing action (don't hate, once you
get into curling your hooked) live through the internet. This does not count
the highlights I watched through the websites video sections.
I've also become a big
fan of watching live concert footage online. The AT&T Blue Room website has
become a big force in the online concert world with full weekend coverage of
such coveted music festivals as the Coachella Music & Arts Festival,
Lollapalooza and The Bonarroo Festival. With their live streaming you can now
see your favorite bands from the comfort of your own living room (and without
having to spend $10 on a beer).
One of my favorite
live video events in recent months, though, has been the live coverage of the
Grammy Awards on Grammy.com in early February. Through the website for the
first time you could watch live coverage of the winners being announced in the
80+ categories that don't get coverage on the performance-heavy live television
broadcast. It might sound weird to watch the winners of the Best Engineered
Album getting announced, but I found it pretty interesting. Also, because most
of the big Grammy Award categories usually end up being won by artists who I
either don't listen to or completely loathe, this is an opportunity to watch
artists that I actually like win awards.
With the internet
becoming as common as cable TV is most American homes, networks have begun to
put just as much effort in their online broadcasts as they do on their
television side. The last couple of years have seen CBS put every single one of
the NCAA basketball tournament games live online so that fans can watch games
from work or out of market. Since studies have shown that productivity at
American businesses goes down nearly 50% during these tournament days it seems
that this strategy is working.
Networks have also
begun putting their shows on demand streaming from their websites just hours
after their original airtime. The fact that networks load their streaming shows
with commercials online (and no, you can't fast-forward through them) meansextra revenue and extra exposure for the show.
