The changing trends of the media landscape Did you know that half a second delay can cause you a 20% drop in traffic?

That’s what Google found out about the importance of speed, the user experience, and user satisfaction.

This is the New Media Age. A world without Netflix is similar to a world without electricity – The stone age in a digital world. Traditional media is transforming and we are stepping into a world of OTT.

What is Media Testing and why is it so Important An over-the-top (OTT) media service is a streaming media service offered directly to digital viewers via the internet bypassing traditional platforms of cable, broadcast, and satellite television.

Users want access to high-quality streaming at any device, any place, any time, and any location. Your service/product is judged by the user. OTT takes the usercentric approach by ensuring a seamless viewing experience through multidevice, multi-browser capability leading to an awesome user experience.

According to a report by Allied Market Research, the global OTT market size was valued at $121.61 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach $1,039.03 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 29.4% from 2020 to 2027.
