Streaming Media's Trendsetting Products and Services of 2024
A recent Forbes Home survey revealed that 99% of all U.S. households pay for one or more streaming services and that viewers are engaging with streaming content a staggering 21 hours per week. The rest of the report’s analysis focuses on streaming consumers’ subscription choices—how many services per user, how many subscribers per service, year-over-year subscription growth rates, how users rate each service’s UX, and so forth. The report concludes that streaming has emerged as a “colossal economic force” valued at $544 billion in 2024 and projects that this number will soar to $1,902 billion by 2030.
While this survey steers clear of any discussion of the underlying technologies that enable streaming delivery at every stage—the majority of which would be invisible to the consumers surveyed, in any event—any report on trends in streaming usage that demonstrates so convincingly that streaming experiences have become a cornerstone of everyday life provides ample evidence that the enabling technologies, tools, and services setting the trends have taken on critical importance as well.
It takes tremendous technological innovation across a wide range of categories to meet the requirements of high-quality, reliable, and secure streaming delivery—be it live, on-demand, or live-to-on-demand. Somewhere among the array of tech companies serving the industry is someone offering the right tool (or service) for every job. And if it’s not out yet, they’re working on it. And if industry progress seems to be moving inexorably cloudward and incorporating AI as never before, that’s just another indication that the much-ballyhooed technologies
that make these trends possible aren’t mere flashes in the pan; they’re simply ideas whose time has come.
Seeing the forest for the trees is a challenge in a fast-changing industry, as is identifying prevailing industry trends amid the constant barrage of product announcements and cyclical technology updates that keep the industry moving. This was certainly the case when wandering the Las Vegas Convention Center’s West Hall at NAB 2024, which was packed to the gills with compelling streaming tech vendors touting eye-catching and innovative offerings.
But, often, it’s the products and services that make and define the industry trends when they signal true innovation and catch on with discerning streaming professionals who know when a product or service not only works or serves their immediate needs, but makes workflows more efficient, enables new approaches, and helps drive the industry forward. Each and every one of Streaming Media’s Trendsetting Products and Services of 2024 meet those criteria and elevate the streaming ecosystem.
