55% of Real-Time Entertainment is Consumed on TV, Mobile Device or Tablet
Real-time entertainment traffic dominates the Web now; and over half of it happens on devices other than a PC or laptop computer. This according to a new report by research company Sandvine. The report states that “by volume, 55% of Real-Time Entertainment traffic is destined for the television (either directly to a smart TV or via an intermediary like a game console or set-top device), a mobile device or tablet.” Those statistics, along with data from Mary Meeker’s Web 2.0 Summit presentation last week, emphasize just how far we’ve come in the post-PC era.
Of the non-computer traffic, much of it comes from Netflix (on TVs), Facebook and YouTube (both mostly on mobile devices).
