A 2017 a Nielsen study showed Australian houses now own 6.6 screens. This is up on the 2016 figure of 6.4 and 6.1 in 2015. Today, the higher balance of these screens are internet connected. This creates more viewing opportunities for different purposes other than broadcast TV. The multifunctionality of contemporary TVs encourages new and varied viewing opportunities.

Despite all our connectivity capabilities, you may be surprised to know that the majority of viewing is still free to air, watched in real time or played back on the TV, in fact, 86%. On average Australians watch 2 hours and 39 minutes of broadcast TV each day. Five years ago they were watching 3 hours and 10 minutes.
Due to the connectivity of our TV screens now, the humble TV has many other complementary uses. In the last quarter of 2017 studies were done showing Australians use their TVs for something other than watching live or catch up TV shows for a staggering 34 hours and 15 minutes over a 28 day period.
So our rates of screen watching are not declining, they are just changing. With the advent of catch up TV, people often wait to watch their favorite show at a time other than the channel scheduled viewing time. This allows the viewer to fast forward through the ads. This would be skewing the “perceived” decline in time watching TV compared to 5 years ago. On top of the TV viewing air habits, we are also using our screens just under 1 hour per day doing something else other than watching free to air.
What does this mean for our screen TV buying habits? At this stage, you would be unwise to have any TV on your list that does NOT have internet capabilities. Technology changes rapidly and to get the most from you next screen investment whether it be free to air, Netflix, Stan, social media and any other streaming service you care to utilise it would be advisable to purchase a TV with up to date technology with the allowance of further iterations.
