Landmark UK Research Shines Spotlight On Streamer Churn, Predicts Netflix Will Still Be Ahead Of Disney+ By 2026
The churn is real. Landmark research from UK media consultancy Omdia has found 45% more streaming services were cancelled in the UK in the past 12 months as a number of deep-pocketed players entered the market, but resubscriptions rose by a colossal 84%. Alongside Netflix and Amazon Prime, consumers had access for the first time to Discovery+ and Peacock in 2021, while Disney + firmly established itself as a key player and Paramount+ will roll out imminently. That injection led to 20% more consumers cancelling their streaming services compared to the previous year. However, according to Omdia, the number of people cancelling then quickly resubscribing increased by 84%, showing that higher churn doesn’t mean subscriptions are necessarily being ditched altogether. In fact, the number subscribing to video services in the UK grew by 11% last year, with Disney+ the big winner on 21% growth, eclipsing Netflix’s 8%. At 15.5M, Netflix still has comfortably the most … [Read more...] about Landmark UK Research Shines Spotlight On Streamer Churn, Predicts Netflix Will Still Be Ahead Of Disney+ By 2026
BBC Bosses “Open Minded” About Future Of Licence Fee, Will Be Closely Involved With Landmark Funding Review
BBC bosses have for the first time indicated they may be open to a change in the corporation’s funding model after 2027. Director General Tim Davie told a UK House of Lords Committee session on BBC Funding yesterday that he is “open minded” about the future of the £159 ($200) annual fee so long as it doesn’t lose audiences, while chair Richard Sharp said the BBC is prepared to face “existential questions” on the future. Davie, who countered that there is “jeopardy” in changing the established funding model, said he and Sharp will be involved closely with the UK government’s forthcoming landmark review of the fee, which kicks off next month. Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries, who recently rubberstamped the sale of Channel 4, has indicated a preference for the BBC to change the way in which it is funded when the charter ends in 2027. She has frozen the licence fee for the next two years, a move that will lose the BBC around £1.5BN ($1.9BN) over the next five years, it … [Read more...] about BBC Bosses “Open Minded” About Future Of Licence Fee, Will Be Closely Involved With Landmark Funding Review

Cannes Review: Brett Morgen’s David Bowie Documentary ‘Moonage Daydream’
David Bowie unquestionably became a great rock star—the greatest ever, according to a tribute published by Rolling Stone after his death in 2016. Yet, it comes closer to the truth to call Bowie a “rock star,” the quotation marks suggesting that what Bowie created was a persona of the rock god, in much the same way that Cary Grant manufactured the quintessential image of the glamorous “movie star.” This is not to take away from his genuine accomplishments as a singer, songwriter and musician—he couldn’t have forged such a compelling persona without those gifts. Bowie’s real project was making art, and rock music and performance are best understood as just some of his modes of artistic expression. Brett Morgen’s documentary Moonage Daydream , which premiered in the Cannes Midnight Screenings section, does supreme justice to Bowie by presenting him above all as an artist intent on exploring not only popular music, but painting, video, writing, dance, and film and … [Read more...] about Cannes Review: Brett Morgen’s David Bowie Documentary ‘Moonage Daydream’
