Parks Associates is urging media companies to develop advertising campaigns that are “integrated and nondisruptive to the viewing experience” for internet video watchers, releasing new data that shows that ad-blocking cost the digital publishing industries some $41.4 billion worldwide in 2015.
According to Parks Associates’s new research report, Tracking Eyeballs: Video Analytics and Measurement, U.S. broadband homes watch an average of 3.8 hours of internet video on their TV sets every week. This is 20 percent of all video viewing on the TV set (about on par with DVR usage). The report notes that consumers might increasingly use ad-blocking solutions if digital ad models are disruptive to the viewing experience.
