Content broadcasted over the Internet, mobile phones, IPTV networks and other alternative delivery systems look to become a huge revenue generator. According to Insight research streaming media will generate $70 billion in revenue over the next six years. The Insight researchers believe that the on-demand audio and video concept will help generate this revenue greatly, because they are expected to boost the market, which will possibly grow at a compound annual rate of 29% through 2013. Which means the reach of these technologies will be greater and greater by 29% each year. But even Insight said they believe that their predictions for the industry could be tremendously surpassed if the consumers take to the technology faster than expected.
This research report that was done by the Insight Research group just indicates in my mind that the age of alternative delivery will continue to prosper. Because if people hear about these huge amounts of money that can be made in this business, I believe companies and people will just continue to branch out the technologies and develop more and more higher quality alternatives to obtain your media.
