Palm Beach, FL – March 10, 2022 – FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary – The streaming market has been growing exponentially in the past few years and is projected to continue for several years to come. The word streaming means listening to music or watching a video in real time rather than to wait for the video to be downloaded to the device and then watch it. Video streaming or media streaming is a video content, which can be sent in compressed form over the internet and played immediately rather than storing it on the hard drive of the device. Streaming videos are usually sent from a pre-recorded video file that is compressed and can be sent over multiple users at the same time. Any device, that has access to internet and applications that can un-compress the contents, can enjoy the services of video streaming. A report from Allied Market Research projected that the global video streaming market size, which was was valued at $38.56 billion in 2018, is projected to reach $149.34 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 18.3% through 2026.  The report said: “The subscription revenue model… is projected to remain dominant during the forecast period owing to increase in the number of subscriptions registered by video streaming content providers.”   Active Companies in the markets today include Grom Social Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: GROM), The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS), Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX), Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCSA).

 

Allied Market Research continued: “Factors such as increase in live streamed content, rise in adoption of cloud-based video streaming solutions, and extensive growth of online video in developing economies majorly boost the growth of the market. Moreover, rise in popularity of video game streaming services as well as extensive use of videos in (education, entertainment) and corporate training fuels the growth of the market. However, bandwidth limitations and latency & reliability issues are expected to hamper the video streaming market growth. Furthermore, increase in impact of video streaming in the education sector and integration of advanced technologies in video platforms to improve video quality are providing numerous opportunities for the market.”
