Perhaps most important for media companies, a younger cohort among Generation #hashtag says that it is increasingly willing to pay for content, especially for video, music and games.The music industry is moving particularly fast, with native streaming surpassing CDs in the U.S. in 2014, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. The written word shows a more mixed pace of change as few people outside the U.S. and U.K. take up digital books, resulting in an overall penetration of 38% across developed countries.
