The Auto Streaming Rush

Screen Shot 2019-08-25 at 11.45.50 AM

The competition for music streaming supremacy entered a new realm this past week, the automotive industry. Car brands have noted consumers demands for certain streaming platform integrations and it has now led to a rush of partnerships with streaming giants like Spotify, Apple, Amazon, and Google.

This was made most evident on Wednesday with Tesla’s partnership announcement with Spotify. The consistent lobbying by Tesla owners for a Spotify integration was finally fulfilled when Elon Musk released the announcement via Twitter.


Porsche also announced this week that their upcoming Taycan electric sports car will include Apple Music. Porsche noted that 80% of their consumers use Apple Music as their primary streaming platform. Porsche CEO, Klaus Zellmer, additionally stated that Porsche “will always be very cautious about whom we grant access to our digital ecosystem in our cars.”

The integration of streaming music platforms in the automotive industry has been a strategy in motion for years. However, the recent push to integrate streaming has been born out of new studies showing that Americans have been increasing their driving time. Drivers have been looking to fill that increased void of time with their favorite music delivered in a convenient method.

The music streaming platform that will provide the most content delivery in the automotive industry is still to be determined.

Interest in the live streaming industry grew larger yesterday as Twitter announced their initiative to develop stronger streaming partnerships with media companies and sports leagues. The move by Twitter signals a trending approach among social media platforms by focusing on niche content rather than quantity.

At yesterday’s Digital Content NewFronts, Twitter revealed to media buyers that they plan to bolster their live streaming portfolio by increasing streaming projects with Viacom, Live Nation, Activision Blizzard, ESPN, NFL, Major League Soccer, Univision Communications, Time magazine, and the Wall Street Journal.

Twitter will also now be aiming live streamed content at users who share the same interests of the content. Twitter users who enjoy politics will now be shown political live streamed shows at the top of their timeline.

Product lead at Twitter, Sriram Krishnan, stated. “If we know you love to watch football we’ll make sure it’s the first thing you see.”

The combination of Twitter’s timeline innovation and popularity of current niche live streamed shows only spells success for their live streaming endeavor in the future.

Streaming Helps Global Music Revenue Rise To 19.1 Billion

According to a recent report from the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), streaming accounted for 47% of global music revenue. The exponential increase in streaming has shown a growing trend of music consumers preferring digital convenience over physical purchases of products.

At the end of 2018, global music revenue increased from 17.4 billion to 19.1 billion. That sizable increase marked the fourth consecutive year of revenue growth. Digital revenues accounted for 11.2 billion, which was an increase of 21.1% from 2017. By the end of 2019, music streaming is projected to grow further and eventually eclipse sales of tangible music products.

The IFPI’s findings are a clear indication that streaming isn’t just a fad but a market that is consistently growing every year. See examples of the magnitude of music streaming by witnessing Bulldog DM’s live streaming projects or the IFPI report below:

3 Ways Live Streaming is Changing the Way We Consume Media

Entertainment has constantly evolved throughout history and live streaming is contributing to that current evolution.  Live streaming is a recent development that is consistent with today’s emphasis on the experience economy as it creates and offers realtime, collaborative participatory broadcasting.

Live streaming is changing the way we interact with brands, attend events, and market. Live streaming is creating new opportunities for artists, content owners, brands and publishers. Here are a few ways that that live streaming is changing the way we consume media:

 

We Don’t Get FOMO if We Can’t Make the Show

FOMO, or the fear of missing out, presents an opportunity that brands can capitalize on and connect with viewers in the age of social media. Millennials see clips and photos of concerts and events that their friends are attending on Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook,Twitter etc. With live streaming, viewers can tune in and experience an event in real time intertwined social media features that include chat, commenting, posting and sharing. No, this phenomenon will not reduce the amount of ticket sales, and in fact creates increased ticket demand for subsequent events, performances and tour dates. It is also opening an entirely new avenue that marketers can maximize.

FOMO is something that marketers and advertisers take into consideration when planning marketing campaigns. For example 1 in 5 millennials attends at least 1 music festival in the US annually and travels on average 903 miles to attend. Live streaming isn’t eliminating this feeling of FOMO, but it is moreover changing how we interact with media and is a strong antidote.

A New Way to Consume Advertisements

Brand spending on live music has seen explosive growth and is now estimated to be a $1.54B business that has seen steady growth over the past several years. Millennials have prioritized shared experiences over buying material possessions to fuel the brand investment in live music.

Brands typically are paying for exposure to the in-venue attendees and eyeballs. Live streaming allows the brands to amplify the experience and connect with a much larger audience who is deeply engaged and watching for extended amounts of time.

63% of millennials watch live video and 42% create live video. Live streaming as an amplification strategy for brands yields incredible reach and engagement.

Events Will be Live Streamed that We didn’t Even Know We Wanted to Watch

Samsung is live streaming a star and influencer studded block party outside the Samsung 837 experience store in New York and Logic’s performance was live streamed on Samsung’s Facebook page and across YouTube. This experience was available worldwide and powered by Bulldog DM.  Events and experiences like Samsung After Unpacked now have a chance of being broadcast on a larger level. Smaller festivals will be viewed and get the chance for more publicity and exposure. Live streaming even has the potential to increase tourism as viewers discover new destinations, locations, clubs, festivals and entertainment districts.

We can now tune into events geographically near or far from the comfort of our homes and from any connected device. Today’s consumer wants a real time collaborative and participatory experience that is only available via live streaming.

Ultimately, live streaming is poised for massive growth as more connected devices enter the market and more platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Twitch prioritize and offer live video.
