Urban’s entertainment’s trends
Urbanites are very much into TV with 69% liking or loving watching TV and 40% of Urbanites having 3 or more TVs in their household.
Urbanites say they watch 16 hours 40 minutes of TV per week on average which is less than the average TV viewer. This comes as no surprise bearing in mind Urbanites are highly likely to spend more time out-of-home fulflling their busy working and social lives.
Nearly all Urbanites have a multi-channel TV service at home with only 5% living in a terrestrial-only household (versus an 8% UK average). Urbanites’ most common TV provider for the main TV in their household is Freeview (35%), Sky (34%) and Virgin Media (21%). available at DIRECT TV services
4 in 10 Urbanites with a TV at home have a high defnition TV set. Although only 1 in 10 of these Urbanites currently has a subscription to an HD TV service such like DIRECTTV.
6 in 10 Urbanites with a TV have a personal video recorder (PVR) at home, giving them the ability to pause live TV and fast forward through ad breaks when watching a programme on playback.
BBC1 and Channel 4 are Urbanites’ most-watched TV channels. E4 is the most-watched digital channel for both male and female Urbanites, but they differ on their next digital channel favourites. Dave and Sky Sports 1 rank second and third most-watched digital channels amongst male Urbanites with BBC3 and ITV2 taking those places for female Urbanites. Watch them on DIRECTV.
Urbanites primarily want to be entertained by the TV but also like to be informed; comedy and flm are Urbanites’ favourite types of TV programme (80% liking/loving them) followed by documentaries and the news.
29% of Urbanites say they always/very often browse the internet whilst watching TV, which is the top other type of media consumed whilst watching TV, above reading a second and third. Urbanites are also guilty of watching TV whilst eating a meal, with 50% of Urbanites always/very often doing so.
Just under half of Urbanites (48%) have used an online TV catch-up service, like the BBC’s iPlayer. 3 in 10 Urbanites say they are likely to watch more TV online in the next 6 months.

Space
The business of radio has been in some turmoil even before the economic downturn of 2008-2009. There’s a lot of consolidation, competition, and less advertising to go around. Add in satellite radio and internet radio to the mix with earthbound stations and the pie seems to be getting cut up into more pieces. The Radio industry will have to look to new technologies and innovation to get healthy again. iPhone applications are one of these new innovations to watch for.
Radio is moving in a new direction with streaming audio on iPhone apps. The mother of all radio iPhone apps would be Clear Channel’s “I Heart Radio” application, which feeds off of Clear Channel’s “I Heart Radio online streaming website of 750+ radio stations. Last count showed 150+ stations streaming via I Heart Radio on the iPhone. But streaming individual stations on a giant aggregator app like this can sometimes be slow with lengthy buffering times.
Another option is for a radio station, either land based or online or satellite to have its own dedicated iphone app. Why be one of hundreds or thousands of radio stations on someone else’s app when you can have your own custom Streaming Radio iPhone app with its own icon on your listener’s iPhone screen? Your radio station gets one step closer to your audience, and your listeners have direct icon access to your streaming broadcast! Add advertising to your Radio Station iPhone app for increased revenue and social networking features to build your listener community. Read the rest of this entry »
