There's been a marked increase, +30pts, in online video viewership between the hours o 6pm to 9pm.Viewership during “business hours” (9am-5pm) has declined, with the majority o videos seen in theevening when viewers are home. The growth o services like Netfix and Hulu (both o which have morethan doubled in 2009) have likely prompted the growth in evening video streaming.
3. More Streams Shared, but Less Sharers
While there has been an overall increase in streams that are shared, the percentage o viewers that sharevideos has decreased in the past two years. Only 26% o respondents stated they actually shared thevideo they just watched, compared to 34% in 2009. Interestingly, the overall video sharer has gotten older,as the 25-54 demographic has grown rom 64% to 72%. We ound that older demographics are less likelyto share video, thus contributing to a smaller proportion o online video sharers.
