This document provides an overview of findings from Ericsson ConsumerLab's annual TV and media research. Some key findings include:
1) Consumers in the US spend 45% more time choosing content on video-on-demand (VOD) services than linear TV, yet are more satisfied with content discovery on VOD.
2) Consumer spending on VOD services in the US has increased over 60% in just a few years, though paid linear TV still accounts for half of average household media spending.
3) Total TV and video viewing time is increasing through massive growth in mobile viewing, with global consumers increasing mobile viewing by 4 hours/week since 2012.
