    YouTube's streaming leadership, and continued rapid growth is a little bit less uncovered today! [image]

    YouTube's strength on the big screen truly is under-covered, but... ...whenever Nielsen finally adds mobile consumption to its monthly “The Gauge” reporting, YouTube's dominance will be so striking and pronounced that it will swing to being over-covered!

    Disney is laser focused on YouTube with a clearly defined strategy and has even considered adding user generated content to Disney+. Other companies are less concerned with YouTube, content to keep focusing on traditional scripted/sports.

    As with all things, I recommend watching the video. :) It's at the top of the article and the nuances of the competitive ecosystem are well articulated by @sherman4949, @KevinMayer, @RichLightShed, @MichelleKhare, @brittanybroski, and others.

    The most undercovered company in the media and entertainment world is YouTube. I spoke with some YouTube execs and creators about why YouTube's dominance keeps expanding and asked Hollywood's main players what they're doing about it. https://www.cnbc.com/...
