introduction Smartphones and tablets reel in new consumers while TV continues to enjoy biggest audience

david elms Head of Media

Every six months KPMG takes the pulse of the media industry surveying users of new and traditional media

the surveys conducted on KPMGrsquos behalf by research and consulting organisation YouGov reveal shifts in consumer appetite and consumption that can translate into powerful indicators for media providers when setting future strategy and direction

our fourth Media and entertainment Barometer highlights a sharp increase in the uptake and monetisation of smartphones tablets and e-readers to the month ending 31 March 2011

Smartphone ownership is up by one-third while tablets new to the UK market in July 2010 have seen their customer share more than double Users happily pay for apps with tablets currently getting the larger proportion of their spend the old favourite television continues to be the

most popular source of entertainment at a time when global events have dominated the news agenda However certain other traditional media activities such as reading print newspapers and listening to the radio continue to decline in popularity

Four-fifths (79 percent) of respondents engaged in new media activities while 99 percent participated in traditional media activities ndash both statistics are consistent with wave 3 of the research

in new media trends mostly continue on an upward trajectory in areas such as social networking and eBooks although online media appeals predominantly to the younger age groups (92 percent of 16 to 24 year-olds participate in new media activity) it now extends to 69 percent of the over-55s too in fact one-third of this older age group engages in social networking and blogging For media companies this

survey indicates that there is a fine line to tread between protecting their stables of traditional media activities while branching out into digital opportunities

there remains a general reluctance among consumers to acquire paid-for content online However the important exceptions are online access and online content on the move Smartphones and tablets are paving the way for media companies that seek to develop their new media business models

By keeping track of consumer habits on a six-monthly basis KPMG will alert media providers to shifting patterns of consumer demand spend and consumption as they happen

trend for smartphones and tablets surges upwards

Increased spending on smartphones and tablets indicates growing consumer demand for lsquoon the moversquo media

People cannot get enough of smartphones and tablets in the UK despite being a relatively new introduction to the market smartphone ownership is growing strongly up one-third from wave 3 to 36 percent in wave 4 Meanwhile tablet ownership has more than doubled in the past six months

Smartphones are especially popular among younger consumers mdash more than half (54 percent) of 18-24 year-olds choose smartphones three-quarters (74 percent) use their smartphones to surf the net and to read emails while 61 percent use it for social media one in eight (12 percent) users has read an eBook on the device

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

Introduction About this Survey Trend for smartphones Spend on apps

Media Barometer 2011

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

introduction Smartphones and tablets reel in new consumers while TV continues to enjoy biggest audience

david elms Head of Media

Every six months KPMG takes the pulse of the media industry surveying users of new and traditional media

the surveys conducted on KPMGrsquos behalf by research and consulting organisation YouGov reveal shifts in consumer appetite and consumption that can translate into powerful indicators for media providers when setting future strategy and direction

our fourth Media and entertainment Barometer highlights a sharp increase in the uptake and monetisation of smartphones tablets and e-readers to the month ending 31 March 2011

Smartphone ownership is up by one-third while tablets new to the UK market in July 2010 have seen their customer share more than double Users happily pay for apps with tablets currently getting the larger proportion of their spend the old favourite television continues to be the

most popular source of entertainment at a time when global events have dominated the news agenda However certain other traditional media activities such as reading print newspapers and listening to the radio continue to decline in popularity

Four-fifths (79 percent) of respondents engaged in new media activities while 99 percent participated in traditional media activities ndash both statistics are consistent with wave 3 of the research

in new media trends mostly continue on an upward trajectory in areas such as social networking and eBooks although online media appeals predominantly to the younger age groups (92 percent of 16 to 24 year-olds participate in new media activity) it now extends to 69 percent of the over-55s too in fact one-third of this older age group engages in social networking and blogging For media companies this

survey indicates that there is a fine line to tread between protecting their stables of traditional media activities while branching out into digital opportunities

there remains a general reluctance among consumers to acquire paid-for content online However the important exceptions are online access and online content on the move Smartphones and tablets are paving the way for media companies that seek to develop their new media business models

By keeping track of consumer habits on a six-monthly basis KPMG will alert media providers to shifting patterns of consumer demand spend and consumption as they happen

trend for smartphones and tablets surges upwards

Increased spending on smartphones and tablets indicates growing consumer demand for lsquoon the moversquo media

People cannot get enough of smartphones and tablets in the UK despite being a relatively new introduction to the market smartphone ownership is growing strongly up one-third from wave 3 to 36 percent in wave 4 Meanwhile tablet ownership has more than doubled in the past six months

Smartphones are especially popular among younger consumers mdash more than half (54 percent) of 18-24 year-olds choose smartphones three-quarters (74 percent) use their smartphones to surf the net and to read emails while 61 percent use it for social media one in eight (12 percent) users has read an eBook on the device

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

Media Barometer 2011

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

Media Barometer 2011

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

Media Barometer 2011

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

Unsurprisingly given its dominance in the market applersquos app Store accounted for the majority (73) of paid apps this is largely because it offers a wider selection of apps than its competitors as well as ease of use and a simple payment mechanism Meanwhile just 7 percent chose Google app store and 6 percent opted for Blackberry app World

Furthermore 24 percent of consumers paid to access content using their smartphones

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

ldquoWhile certain professional and financial publications were embraced the jury is still out on more general titles indicating that the subscription paywall model is not yet firmly establishedrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

ldquo We will continue to see businesses drive consumers to their websites to earn revenue from advertising and where it is commercially sensible we will see content that is behind paywalls Both models have a place and can succeed given the right conditionsrdquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

it is still early days for paywalls but KPMGrsquos Media and entertainment Barometer detects that monetizing content that is currently free will not be an easy switch Just 2 percent of respondents say they would be willing to pay for access to content if a website or mobile content site they frequently use began charging Most consumers (83 percent) say the introduction of paywalls on sites they access frequently would prompt them to seek similar or the same content elsewhere

Six out of 10 consumers who said they may become a subscriber for online content would be prepared to pay for films via fixed or mobile devices mdash although consumers willing to pay for online gaming took a hit falling from 13 percent in wave 3 to 8 percent in wave 4 Surprisingly just 35 percent would pay for music compared with 50 percent in wave 3

While tV remains the most important medium for current affairs especially for visual footage news agency websites were used by 21 percent to view the unrest in the Middle east and by 26 percent to view clips of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami newspaper websites were used by 14 percent to track the unrest in the Middle east and by 16 percent to catch up with events in Japan Youtube was used by 7 and 12 percent respectively 4 percent chose Facebook to monitor clips of both events

interestingly there was a rise in consumers spending more time on newspapernews portals in March 2011 mdash 40 percent of consumers viewed news online via fixed and mobile devices

apple continues to be the most popular tablet on the market mdash increasing market share by 12 percentage points to 57 percent between waves 3 and 4 However it is anticipated that Samsung HP dell and archos (which all saw declining market share in the fourth wave) will ignite price competition by introducing more affordable hardware

Four-fifths of tablet-owners downloaded apps in the month to March 31 2011 of which 29 percent were free 6 percent paid and 45 percent a combination of both the apple app Store continues to be the main source of paid apps mdash 93 percent visited the store to download paid apps to their tablets

74 percent of smartphone owners downloaded apps in the same period of which 42 percent were free one percent paid for and 31 percent a combination of both

almost three-quarters (74 percent) of tablet owners also own a smartphone these dual owners are interestingly more inclined to spend on apps for tablets (pound887 in the month to March 31 2010) than on apps for smartphones (pound565) they are also more willing to pay for content on tablets (62 percent paid for access) than on smartphones (24 percent) this is inevitably due to the size of the tablet and its superior video quality and screen that make it

preferable for viewing books newspapers films and tV programmes than on the smartphone as new content providers such as Sky news Channel 4 and itV come on board with video services we anticipate that the tabletrsquos popularity will grow further

Consumers in wave 4 paid to access games (32 percent) eBooks (21 percent) and music (20 percent) on the tablet the survey findings clearly point to a continued rise in the popularity of smartphones and particularly tablets this will continue to drive expenditure through the internet

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

While tV remains the most important medium for current affairs especially for visual footage news agency websites were used by 21 percent to view the unrest in the Middle east and by 26 percent to view clips of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami newspaper websites were used by 14 percent to track the unrest in the Middle east and by 16 percent to catch up with events in Japan Youtube was used by 7 and 12 percent respectively 4 percent chose Facebook to monitor clips of both events

interestingly there was a rise in consumers spending more time on newspapernews portals in March 2011 mdash 40 percent of consumers viewed news online via fixed and mobile devices

Whatrsquos going up in new media

ldquothere is uncertainty about how fast online markets will develop However high awareness levels indicate latent demand with aspiring consumers buying smart technology and paying for online apps and online media the catalyst for growth is likely to be the introduction of lower-priced tablets and smartphones More affordable online media services may bring on the tipping point that turns innovative services into mass mediardquo david elms Head of Media KPMG

Our media barometer provides a snapshot of new media preferences and finds out where consumers are spending their money

eBooks the alternative paperback

the increasing availability of tablets and e-readers such as the iPad and the Kindle is turning readers to digital content

Since wave 1 of our research in September 2009 consumers of electronic books have almost doubled For users who prefer the look and feel of traditional content e-readers offer an accessible and portable format with a page-turning rather than scrolling experience that is not possible on a PC screen

Users spend more on eBooks (pound4) per month than on online games (pound2) or streamed tV (pound1) only downloaded music competes for fractionally more disposable income (pound5)

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

Social networking for all

Social networking and blogging remain the most popular online activity Half of all respondents participate including one third of the over-55s while women are more likely to use social networking blogging sites than men

Gaming now a relatively mature online industry may have suffered as a consequence it has steadily declined in popularity from 29 percent in wave 1 to 21 percent by wave 4 as it competes for user time However gaming (along with social networking) still accounts for the greatest amount of time (12 hours) spent online

Streaming ndash as long as itrsquos free

For the first time KPMG tested respondentsrsquo awareness of streamed TV services and found it to be very high

the top seven providers achieved awareness of between 39 percent and 90 percent

Free-view tV services such as BBC iPlayer (acknowledged by 90 percent of respondents) and itV Player (74 percent) which are heavily cross-promoted by broadcasters are the most well-known Conversion rates are also high BBC iPlayer is used by just under two-thirds (63 percent) of those respondents who have heard of it

However awareness does not always convert into usage especially for paid services Half of our respondents had heard of Sky Player but less than 1 in 10 of these (8 percent) use it Conversion rates for other paid streaming services are even lower Looking ahead media providers might respond to consumersrsquo appetite for streaming by offering single tV programmes or mini-daily or weekly subscriptions without long-term tie-ins

among the younger generation awareness of itV Player Channel 4rsquos 4od and Lovefilm is higher than among older counterparts while BBC iPlayerrsquos audience remains consistent irrespective of usersrsquo age

awareness of streaming is much higher among smartphone users than standard handset owners People who own smartphones tend to be tech savvy they know what streaming services are available and are more inclined to search for data services online

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

ldquoSome say that television has gone through a renaissance over the past 18 months But it never went away in its various forms (linear catch-up and on-demand) television has remained one of the most powerful media in terms of impact reach and the average number of hours people spend watching itrdquo Guy di Piazza Media analyst KPMG

there has been a small decline in demand and spend on popular pastimes like attending sporting and music events or visits to the cinema since our surveys began in September 2009 the time of year (March 2011) might be the most probable cause for this dip in attendance at music

concerts while the decline in cinema visits (down from 27 percent in wave 3 to 21 percent in wave 4) is possibly a reflection on less popular releases by film studios in recent times

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

Looking ahead the migration to online media will continue and media companies will face a delicate balancing act Media companiesrsquo revenues are higher per consumer of traditional content than per consumer of online content if companies are to maintain their margins they will need to rewrite operational and cost models that are geared currently towards traditional content

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3

tV resilient to smart invasion

TV continues to be a top pastime but other traditional media activities are losing fans

the survey finds that watching tV offline remains the most popular form of consuming media in wave four 92 percent of people watched tV barely changing on the previous two waves

However the overall consumption of traditional media is declining and the inexorable migration to online media continues

Certain traditional media activities fail to find favour and attract less disposable income than in the past Going down in popularity are print newspapers (from 81 percent in wave 1 to 77 percent by wave 4) radio (from 82 percent to 77 percent) and playing consolevideo games (from 34 percent to 27 percent) Listening to Cds declined markedly from 72 percent in wave 1 to 60 percent by wave 4

online or offline

Online and offline media currently serve distinct purposes

the overall picture is of a burgeoning mixed ecology as consumers grow accustomed to switching seamlessly between online and offline media for their entertainment needs there is for now a coexistence between the two that appears to satisfy most people

it is difficult however to deny an overwhelming preference among consumers for the feel and tangibility of physical offline content among respondents who said they prefer to consume their media offline 83 percent said they preferred to watch tV and films on a tV than on a computer 73 percent said they prefer to read something physical than on screen However as in the previous waves of research a preference for online media is predominantly due to the availability and convenience of lsquoon-the-move contentrsquo

Content worth paying for or not

Consumers are increasingly prepared to pay for content on the move (via smartphones and tablets) but are less keen to pay for access on their desktops

the number of consumers spending time viewing news online has gone up from 32 to 40 percent across fixed and mobile online media since wave 3
