Digital distribution has opened an abundance of monetization opportunities, in contrast to previous television models that relied on advertising and subscription revenue from pay-TV service operators. Average monthly spending on subscription video on-demand services (SVOD) among U.S. broadband consumers has increased from $3.71 per month in 2012 to $6.19 per month in 2015, opening additional opportunities to monetize television content beyond the live and VOD windows. Live digital streaming of sports content, the early authenticated and transactional VOD window, early and mid-subscription VOD window, and digital syndication are all impacting digital TV content distribution.
