About this report
The 2016 U.S. Cross-Platform Future in Focus leverages several data sources unique to comScore:
 The report is based primarily on behavioral measurement from comScore Media Metrix® Multi-Platform, which provides deduplicated reporting of digital audiences
across desktop computers, smartphones and tablets, and comScore Mobile Metrix®, which provides deduplicated reporting of mobile web and app audiences across
both smartphones and tablets. The report also includes survey-based mobile data from comScore MobiLens®, as well as TV/Cross-Platform behavioral data from the
comScore Xmedia™, comScore OnDemand Everywhere® and comScore TV Everywhere™ product lines.
Important Definitions:
o Electronic Sell-Through (EST): The consumer pays a fee to purchase or perpetually licenses a digital reproduction (i.e., movie or TV show). This licensed reproduction could be in the form of a file
downloaded to the consumer’s internet-connected device or local hard drive, or via access to the content in a virtual storage locker or cloud-based service for streaming on demand to the end-user.
The major digital retailers here are Amazon, Google Play, iTunes, PlayStation, Xbox, Vudu and others.
o Free on Demand (FOD): Operator-based free on demand content, usually offered via broadcast and cable networks for free or with advertising.
o Internet Video on Demand (iVOD): The temporary license (i.e., a rental) of a program for a limited and pre-determined viewing period (such as 24 or 48 hours) for on-demand viewing by an end-
user. The program may be downloaded and stored locally on the end-user’s device, or accessed online via streaming from digital retailers like Amazon Instant Video, Google Play, iTunes, PlayStation
Store, Xbox Video and Vudu.
o Over-the-Top Subscription Video on Demand (OTT SVOD): Refers to the delivery of audiovisual content streamed over the internet without the involvement of an internet service provider (ISP) in
the control or distribution of the content. The ISP is neither responsible for, nor is able to control, the viewing abilities, copyrights, and/or other redistribution of the content, which arrives from a third
party and is delivered to an end-user’s device from online subscription services like Amazon Prime, Hulu Plus and Netflix.
o Mobile: The combination of smartphone and tablet. When data is referring specifically smartphones or tablets, it will be labeled accordingly.
o Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD): For a fixed, recurring fee, subscribers may have unlimited streaming to a licensed catalog of content for the duration of their active subscription
term. Subscription terms may be as short as one month (e.g., Hulu Plus, Netflix) or as long as one year (e.g., Amazon Prime). In addition to SVOD via over-the top (OTT), SVOD can also be delivered
via Cable Video on Demand (cVOD), which is on demand content streamed or downloaded via a cable, telecommunications or satellite provider (e.g., HBO, Showtime, Starz).
o Transactional on Demand (TOD): A temporary license (rental) of a movie or special event from an operator for a fee for a limited and pre-determined viewing period (such as 24 or 48 hours) for on-
demand viewing.
o Unique visitor: A person who visits an app or digital media property at least once over the course of a month.

Mobile now represents almost 2 out of 3 digital media minutes, and
smartphone apps alone are approaching half of all digital time spent.
Although desktop is
relatively flat in total
engagement, it is
losing share to
mobile – which now
accounts for 65% of
digital media time
spent. Mobile apps
now drive the
majority of digital
time spent at 56%,
and smartphone
apps alone look to
account for a
majority of digital
media consumption
in 2016.

Google Sites remains the #1 web property, Facebook jumped one
spot to #2, and Yahoo is the only other property with 200MM visitors.
The average Top 10
digital media

only on mobile and
31% visiting on both

6 of the Top 10 have

Google Sites ranked as the #1 digital media property every month of
2015 as it looks to be the first to surpass 250 million visitors.
Google retained a
strong lead on its #1
position among all
digital media

of U.S. internet

Some of the biggest recent shifts in categories’ mobile penetration
has come from transactional and informational categories.
While social media,
communications and
entertainment
categories have always
done well on mobile,
many consumers are
now branching out to
perform other
functions. Consumers
increasingly use mobile
to access information
on health, careers, and
travel, and they
increasingly conduct
banking transactions
and buy airline and
event tickets.

Smartphone penetration increased among every age demographic,
with Millennials now well over the 90% mark.
Millennials saw the
most significant
gains in smartphone
penetration in 2015,
with both 18-24 and
25-34 year-olds
solidly above 90%.
Despite the Age 55+
segment having the
most room for
growth, its 1-point
annual gain may
indicate a slow
climb to attaining
those higher levels
of penetration.

Large screen smartphones have been quickly gaining in popularity
and overtook small screen smartphone ownership in April 2015.
More consumers
are adopting
smartphones with a
4.5” display or
greater, while tablet
ownership has
plateaued in the
past year. This
correlation could be
due to tablets and
larger screen
smartphones
sharing many of the
same use cases.

Millennials use several social networks regularly, but Facebook
continues to lead in both audience size and engagement.
After Facebook,
relative newcomer
Snapchat has the
highest engagement
per visitor among
Millennials, just
ahead of Instagram.
The latter network
has the largest
audience
penetration after
Facebook, followed
by Twitter and
LinkedIn.

The 35+ population are also heavy Facebook users, but don’t spread
their attention quite as heavily across other networks as Millennials.
Age 35+ users have

one exception being
slightly higher

Facebook usage overall accounts for 1 in every 6 minutes spent
online, and more than 1 in 5 minutes spent on mobile.
Facebook is the #1
digital media
property by time
spent. While it
maintains an
impressive double-
digit market share of
desktop time spent,
it really shines on
mobile platforms,
where its four core
apps each
contribute a
meaningful share of
engagement.

While Facebook’s users mirror the internet as a whole, Instagram,
Tumblr, Vine and especially Snapchat skew significantly younger.
Snapchat is the
youngest skewing
social network with
almost half of its
users between 18-
24 years old and
2/3rds of them
between the ages of
18-34. The most
popular networks
among Millennials
tend to be those
with visually-

The total amount of time watching TV is down 2% year-over-year for
both Live TV and DVR (excluding Video On Demand).
While viewing is
down on Live TV
and DVR, this does
not mean that
consumers are
watching less
content overall.
There is now a
greater availability
of viewing options
appealing to a wider
array of tastes than
ever before, but
many of these
options are offered
via OTT, on demand

Within the cVOD market, subscription content has an impressive
share of engagement despite being driven by only a few channels.
The majority of cVOD
viewing is Free On
Demand, but most of
the growth is
happening via
subscription services
such as HBO and
Showtime. TOD,
which includes fee-
based rentals or
special events, lost
share in 2015 –
perhaps due to
subscription VOD
increasingly filling the
consumer need for
great storytelling and
high production
value.

likely to spend time

prevent some online ad impressions from ever reaching people.

Of the ad impressions that do get served, more than half can’t have
an impact because they’re not viewable or not delivered to a human.

While most of these

are simply delivered

invalid traffic, necessitating advanced detection methods.
Sophisticated IVT,
which according to
the Media Rating
Council (MRC)
includes “traffic
originating from

the vast majority of

digital commerce.
2015 saw an
especially strong
jump in its percent

However, dollars are significantly lagging digital media time spent
on mobile, highlighting the mobile conversion challenge.
Mobile accounts for
60% of time spent
shopping online, but
only 16% of all retail
dollars spent, due to
factors such as
security concerns
and smaller screen
size. This m-
commerce
monetization gap will
continue to narrow
over time, but the
shares of time spent
and dollars spent
likely won’t ever
reach equilibrium.

Ten Trends for 2016

© comScore, Inc. Proprietary. 68
Top Trends for 2016
1. 2016 will be the year of cross-platform
̵ Over the past few years we’ve seen the convergence of desktop and mobile into a unified multi-platform digital environment. The next phase in media convergence is the collision of
TV and Digital as a higher percentage of viewing happens via the internet and as consumers’ viewing patterns become more fluid across platforms. As measurement systems are
developed to quantify this behavior, the media and marketing industries will be transformed by the power of cross-platform data.
2. Digital audience growth will subside, leading to a renewed focus on engagement and attention metrics
̵ Digital audiences have undergone a sustained period of growth from the emergence of the mobile internet, but signs that this growth trend is beginning to taper off point to a growing
demand for metrics that go beyond demonstrating scale. Engagement metrics, such as time spent and meaningful visits, are likely to play an increasing role in articulating the value
of a digital media property’s audience.
3. The smartphone app will account for the majority of all digital media consumption
̵ Time spent on smartphone apps has been consistently trending upward in the past few years, ending 2015 with a 47% share of total digital media engagement. It’s growth trajectory
will continue in 2016 – particularly as mobile video viewing gains steam – on its way to representing the majority of all digital consumption time.
4. Mobile ad spend will get unlocked as measurement standards come into place
̵ Mobile advertising growth has been on a tear the past two years, which is little surprise given the shift in media consumption to smartphones and tablets. At the same time,
measurement standards for mobile have lagged that of desktop, which has likely inhibited further ad spending on mobile. As those standards finally come into clearer view in 2016,
advertisers will benefit from more comparable metrics and more scalable means of reaching the right consumers.
5. Social media will increasingly revolve around video content
̵ With Snapchat having now emerged as the next great social media company, there is a growing realization of the power of video to drive social resonance. Facebook and Instagram
have already ramped up their video efforts, and more recently we’ve seen Twitter-owned Periscope capture the attention of users with its livestreaming capability.

Top Trends for 2016
6. Platform publishing optimization will emerge as digital’s newest cottage industry
̵ With publishers putting their content directly on 3rd party publishing platforms such as Facebook Instant Articles, Snapchat Discover and Apple News, a host of technological, analytic
and revenue optimization challenges will arise that may exceed what publishers are equipped to efficiently handle in-house. Just as search engine optimization boomed during the
first half of the 2000s, and social marketing optimization exploded in the late 2000s, the next big digital cottage industry will be built around publisher platform optimization.
7. Just as small screen viewing is shifting to the tiny screen, the big screen will be increasingly fought on the small screen
̵ TV – aka “small screen” – content viewing has increasingly shifted to even smaller screens such as smartphones and tablets in the past few years. A parallel shift we can expect to
see accelerate in 2016 is from the movie theater screen to TV screen. As Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and others enter bidding wars for the rights to major motion pictures that would
traditionally have a theatrical release, more first-run viewing of these films is likely to happen from the comfort of streaming video subscribers’ homes.
8. Wider availability of over-the-top (OTT) content will grow the Total Video pie, not cannibalize it
̵ The conversation around shifts toward OTT viewing on Netflix, Amazon and the like has traditionally been coupled with discussion of cord-cutting. But with more broadcast and cable
networks – such as HBO, CBS, Disney and others – making their content available over-the-top via apps, there is a renewed opportunity to reach those non-Pay TV audiences who
couldn’t otherwise be reached while not increasing the rate of cord-cutting.
9. Mobile commerce will surpass 20% share of total retail dollars spent on digital
̵ While m-commerce conversion will remain a relative friction point, a confluence of factors are improving to help mobile’s share of spending continue to accelerate. Faster
connections, decreasing concerns over transaction security, larger phone screen sizes, and more frictionless navigation of e-commerce mobile sites and apps will all help push m-
commerce share from under 17% in 2015 to more than 20% in 2016.
10. Content curation will emerge as a key area of tech and startup innovation
̵ The expansiveness and highly fragmented nature of media content today has created a huge problem for consumers who want to easily access and keep track of the TV shows,
digital videos, podcasts, books, music, and articles they want to consume. At the same time, there remains untapped opportunity for more relevant content recommendation –
leveraging social and other algorithms – that can help significantly improve the content discovery experience. That such large consumer friction points still exist suggest that the
technology/media sector may be ripe for its next wave of innovation (ironically, just as talk of the tech bubble bursting reaches a fever pitch).
