New research from Sharethrough on video consumption behaviors reveals the impact mobile feeds have had on watching videos on mute, even on TV.
In our continuing effort at Sharethrough to build human-centric programmatic ad technologies, we recently conducted research into video consumption behaviors of the modern consumer.
The findings paint a picture of changing human behavior and the implications on a changing media landscape. What is particularly evident is how the growth of mobile video consumption and feed-based site designs has impacted the way we watch video on TV.
For example, now that most sites are designed as a feed, 75% of people say that they often keep their phone on mute even when a video is playing. Not surprisingly, that means people now expect mobile videos to have captions since 72% say they are more likely to watch a mobile video if it has captions.
But that behavior has bled into how consumers watch video on their computer and TV where 66% and 57%, respectively, are more likely to watch videos with captions.
However, the most shocking impact mobile video consumption behavior has had on TV is that nearly 50% of people now watch TV with captions! In fact, mobile has had such an impact on our video behaviors that TV should now be considered the 2nd screen to mobile since 79% of people take out their device when a commercial starts playing on TV.
