Understanding changes to the way that we consume culture at home during COVID-19: Week five of the six-week study

Republished by ECBN from: PEC

Insights from weeks 1-5 of the study (9th April – 15th May 2020) show that after four weeks of relative stability for most categories in terms of the amount of time spent consuming content per day, online or offline, this week saw some notable reductions. Levels of overall time spent consuming per day fell for music, film, TV and magazines in week 5, taking them to the lowest levels recorded in the study. The proportion of people streaming films fell significantly, to its lowest level. Music, which has been quite volatile (up or down) across the weeks in terms of the proportion streaming or downloading had quite a stable week, with figures in-line with week 4.
