• We live in a "skippable" world – The world of advertising is changing – dramatically. A recent Nielsen report revealed that among 18- to 24-year-olds, live TV viewership was down by 16 percent. Media Post reports that 49 percent of VOD users and 56 percent of DVR users skip through every commercial. Consumer time and attention is rapidly shifting from live viewing to on-demand consumption, with broad-reaching implications for advertisers and broadcasters alike.
