When did we shift from total household views to total minutes?


Probably when they implemented the password sharing crackdown. I’m sure those household numbers dropped like a rock and any number of minutes watched sounds like a lot without context.

I think views are pretty useless for streaming when people can click a show and then turn it off 5 minutes into an episode


You can definitely see how long people watched too. How many households watched a full episode is what I meant. Again, you could just press play and walk away a dozen times a day if you want a show to have better "total minutes watched" numbers. Which I would totally do if I made a show and was concerned about it lol

It's the same principle as Taylor swift setting listening records. Her fans actually do just play a song over and over and over again all day long so that she holds these records.

ETA: There are also a lot of people who think her fans use bots to re-listen all day long for the same purpose. Bizarre behavior, but it's out there

Lol, I'm not talking about one person dog. Hence my Swift comment.

Disney has plenty of fanboys. Plus I was moreso making general statements

ok but the numbers came from Luminate, which uses ACR technology on smart TVs to track what content is being watched on a household level.

I don't know why they would be disproportionate towards one service or another? Their entire business model is based around the accuracy of their data.

Disney+ had, roughly 150 or 160 million subscribers. So, the average D+ subscriber watched 18 to 20 minutes of The Acolyte.

#Impressive

(By comparison, the average D+ subscriber watched 5 to 6 hours of Bluey in 2024.)
