WHAT’S NEW
Q1 2018
Talpa now owns news agency ANP after the
acquisition from Veronica. Owner John de
Mol is likely to integrate ANP within a new
format on one of its TV channels.
The Winter Olympics and popular
programming such as ‘The Luizenmoeder’
led to high market share for NPO in Q1.
Major shifts in the radio landscape with the
(future) transfers of DJ’s Gerard Ekdom,
Domien Verschuren and Edwin Evers.
Digital news kiosk Blendle responds to the
popularity of podcasts by launching Blendle
Audio, which allows subscribers to listen to a
selection of articles every day.
With the launch of Instagram’s shoppable
posts and the shopping feature in Snapchat’s
AR filters, social media can become even
more important for e-commerce.
With Facebook’s data leak in the U.S. and
the implementation of GDPR, privacy
becomes a relevant and much discussed
topic in The Netherlands.

Starcom is the Human Experience Company. At
Starcom we believe that experiences are the new
communication currency. Experiences enrich lives and
facilitate connections between brands and consumers.
To create the right experience, understanding people is
key. We need to understand our clients’ target
audiences throughout the whole marketing funnel.
Within this funnel, consumer media behavior plays a
very important role. That’s why we no longer divide the
media landscape based on media types, but on how
people experience media.
As such, we differentiate between five key Media
Consumption Patterns (MCPs): Watching, Listening,
Reading, Communicating and On the Go. Based on
these MCPs we will guide you through the Dutch media
landscape. We hope you will enjoy it.

mainstream
The public image of

Entertainment and Media Outlook 2017-2021
New technologies like Artificial
Intelligence and Block chain can
be used to improve the user
experience, something that will
become increasingly important.
Digital advertising keeps
winning ground. Other media
types can and will coexist, but
they need to keep improving
their added value.
New privacy laws like ‘EU
GDPR’ oppose the ability to use
consumer specific data, which
will limit the possibilities for
(digital) marketers.

With the growing need for
specific targeting, programmatic
TV buying will be the ultimate
solution in order to reach
specific audiences.

The way in which people
consume video content will shift
more to on-demand viewing,
from a mobile device.
Video consumption
Network capacity
The demand for network
capacity is increasing and
requires significant investments
from operators, but competition
is putting pressure on pricing.

Competitive reporting in the Netherlands
Competitive reporting is based on gross media spend.
Bear in mind that most advertisers profit from (heavy)
discounting, especially on TV, so the difference with actual
spend can be significant.
*In the gross spend reporting digital spend is not fully
reported. For example, search, social media advertising
and video are (partially) excluded.

The current Dutch Cookie law is replaced by the European privacy law
(GDPR) in May 2018, to encourage the trust and safety of digital services.
According to this law, Internet users don’t have to accept cookies anymore
before entering a site. The EU claims that Internet users should have
complete access to every site. With only one setting in the browser, you can
accept or decline all the tracking-cookies.
GDPR will have most consequences for online marketers; (re)targeting will
become more difficult if users decide to decline the tracking-cookies. Since
for many publishers ad space is the most important source of revenue, it is
likely that in the future Internet users have to pay for visiting certain websites.

Since February 2018, Google automatically blocks ads in
the Chrome browser that do not meet the conditions of the
Coalition for Better Ads. In contrast to the industry-feared
AdBlock Plus or uBlock, only a small proportion of
advertising is expected to be blocked. Hence, there is little
resistance against Chrome’s ad blocker.

Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality
Almost a fifth of the Dutch (19%) sometimes use VR to enter a different
world. In addition, one in six (17%) sometimes use Augmented Reality
(AR) with which they can, for example, play Pokémon Go or see how
furniture would look in their house.
Facebook – Oculus Go
VR and AR are far from reality for everyone
Google released the first version of ARCore and Google Lens in
February 2018. Google Lens is an image recognition application. With
platform ARCore people can develop Augmented Reality applications.
Google ARCore is the counterpart of Apple's ARKit.
ARCore Google
At the beginning of 2018, Facebook launched a new VR headset called
‘Oculus Go’. The Oculus Go is a cheaper alternative of the original
Oculus Rift and is completely wireless. This VR headset is intended as
an entry-level model and costs € 219.

MCP: On the Go
On average people spend one hour per day
On the Go. Time spent On the Go is stable
over the years but the possibilities for brands
to get in contact with consumers during these
moments are increasing. This is mostly due to
increased smartphone and mobile
Internet penetration, but also due to new and
innovative digital OOH media solutions.

Trends and developments
CS Digital Media has started the upgrade of its screen network
in the Dutch public transport. All screens are replaced by newer
alternatives, either bigger or with higher resolution. Next to
metro stations of Rotterdam and the stadium of PEC Zwolle,
CS Digital Media will soon expand to Amsterdam and Antwerp.
The Hague definitively allocates the tender of information
displays to JCDecaux. As a result, JCDecaux’s digital display
network ‘Métropole’ will expand to the total Randstad area of
Amsterdam, Utrecht, Rotterdam and Den Haag.

TV audience measurement I
‘Stichting KijkOnderzoek’ (SKO) is the primary provider of the official television
audience ratings in the Netherlands.
SKO is a non-profit organization, organized as a Joint Industry Committee (JIC).
The Media Standard Survey is used for weighting.
The television audience measurement provides information on how many people
watched a program, when they watch tv and what their characteristics are. Viewing
data is collected second-by-second by means of a metering system that is installed
at 1,250 house holds (2,750 persons) which is representative for the Netherlands.
Ratings are reported minute-by-minute for channels received in the Netherlands
independent of the way their signal is distributed.

TV audience measurement II
The core of the audience measurement is the
common currency (TV Total). The measurement
includes guest viewing in the panel households and
time shifted viewing (on the day of broadcast plus the
next six days). In order to achieve Video Total (TV +
Online Video) SKO measures census data for online
video and combines this with panel data to calculate
the Online Video Total. Video Total was launched in
April 2017.
SKO also investigates new ways of viewing via so-
called ‘satellites’ studies that are conducted
alongside the currency measurement. This approach
allows SKO to measure new forms of viewing
behaviour (i.e. online video) without influencing the
core currency data.

Digital audience measurement
In 2015, de Verenigde Internet Exploitanten (VINEX)
and Stichting KijkOnderzoek (SKO) have started het
Nederlands Online Bereik Onderzoek (NOBO).
NOBO, run by Kantar TNS, is the new currency for
digital reach in 2016. NOBO is a collaboration
involving more than twenty major media companies.
Participating online media are provided with a tag. To
also include global players like Facebook, NOBO has
built-in an additional module that can report non-
tagged sites.
NOBO is linked to SKO for online video. Also NOM is
involved for digital reach of magazines and
newspapers.

There are two providers of digital audience ratings in the Netherlands: DAM and NOBO.

Radio audience measurement
NLO is a non-profit organization, organized as a Joint Industry Committee (JIC). The radio audience
ratings are based on a log of a panel of 7,500 respondents. The Media Standard Survey is used for
weighting.
NLO has developed a new technique for measuring listening behavior. A portable electronic device with
audio-matching technique will eventually replace the Radiolog. The new technique calculates radio reach
per minute instead of per 15-minute interval. The release date is not announced yet.

‘Nationaal Luister Onderzoek’ (National Listening Research) is the primary
provider of the official radio audience ratings in the Netherlands.

Print audience measurement
NOM (Nationaal Onderzoek Multimedia) is responsible for carrying out and reporting
the national readership figures for daily newspapers and magazines. It reports
average issue readership (AIR), which is a currency for newspapers and magazines in
The Netherlands. From 2015, NOM also reports the average circulation figures and
digital census data of newspapers, magazines and business magazines.
Source: http://www.nommedia.nl | 21st April 2017
NOM is organized as a Joint Industry Committee (JIC), and was founded in 2001.
In addition to the print currency, NOM also conducts a follow-up survey, asking about brand &
product usage as well as a host of lifestyle questions and various areas of interests and hobbies.
The combined survey, called NPDM, includes the print data as well as social demographic- and
lifestyle data and media usage. The data is based on 19,000 respondents (NL 13+) and weighted to
be nationally representative. It is published ones a year via a special software package.
In 2017, NOM launched a new product: NOM Mediamerken which reports the combined reach of
print and online of news media and magazines.

Out of home audience measurement I
‘Het Buitenreclame Onderzoek’ (BRO) is the primary provider of the official OOH
audience ratings in the Netherlands. With the launch of BRO in 2011, the new
currency for audience measurement was avaliable for OOH: VAC, the visibility
adjusted contact.
Source: Het Buitenreclame Onderzoek, 21st April ‘17
VAC is based on multiple data sets regarding people,
movement and object classification:
Measuring of all traffic (Mobiliteitsonderzoek Nederland;
Field research to travel behaviour (TNS);
Inventory and classification of street objects;
Differentiates visibility between location of objects (near
pathway, railway stations, shopping centres,
supermarkets, parking garages, petrol stations and traffic
advertisement).

Out of home audience measurement II
For measuring all traffic TNS has carried out a travel survey
over a period of nine months (N=10.637). The ‘Gouden
Standaard 2010’ is used for weighting. For this study the
Netherlands has been divided into 30 regions, each one
around a city with at least 75,000 inhabitants. Each of the
individual regions/media owner packages can be analysed via
specialist software developed by BRO: Cafas. Pre-defined
male/female target audiences (13-75 years old) can be used.

Cinema audience measurement
Commissioned by the ‘Nederlandse Vereniging van Bioscopen en Filmtheaters (NVBF)’ and
‘Filmdistributeurs Nederland (FDN)’, ‘Stichting Filmonderzoek’ periodically studies the range of
cinemas /movie theatres, the frequency of visits and the market share of Dutch cinema visitors. This
provides insight into cinema behavior of the Dutch population.
For the ‘bioscoopmonitor 2016’, quarterly fieldwork took place among a core group of panel members
(N= 11,422) of CentERdata and young panel members of LISS panel.
The panel members were asked whether – and if so, how often – they have been visited the cinemas
and/or movie theatre in the previous quarter and whether they have visited a Dutch movie.
