    The world has changed drastically in the last few decades since the creation of the internet. That was followed by social media platforms, which have revolutionized many aspects of modern life, including how we are entertained.

    With more time on our hands than ever before, thanks to improved technology and efficiency in our work places, people now have increased time to spend on leisure activities. And with this has come the great technological innovation that is streaming.

    Streaming explained

    Essentially, streaming is the instant consumption of data without having to download. It means that you can watch whatever you want and whenever you want – it is the ultimate in convenience. Before streaming, you would have to plan what you were going to watch and make sure you were in to watch it. Or record it and watch it later.

    Now enormous media companies have emerged that provide an almost endless array of shows on streaming services. Netflix and Amazon Prime are market leaders in this area, with over 130 million subscribers combined.

    Social media giants

    The complete immersion of society on social media platforms has resulted in a radical change in how we communicate. Take a look below at some mind-blowing stats that shows the number of people who are regularly using social media:

    • Facebook – has over 3 billion monthly users and over 2 billion people who watch streamed videos every day.
    • TikTok – approximately 1.1 billion daily users. Very popular for live broadcasting and e-commerce live streams.
    • Instagram – 1.2 billion monthly users with 82% of 18-24 year olds watching Instagram live sessions
    • X – (formerly Twitter), has 550 million active users
    • You tube – 2.5 billion daily active users and a staggering 80% subscription rate

    Direct connection

    So where is all the content coming from? Well, social media influencers use their follower base to boost engagement and build brand awareness. Influencers create content, which is monetized extensively, and has created huge shifts in traditional marketing strategies.

    We can also imagine streaming as a two-way street, with insanely valuable feedback provided to creators from users – something that was not possible before.

    Other streaming entertainment

    One very popular way that people spend some of their leisure time is online gaming. Online casinos form a big part of this, with some estimates suggesting that the industry in the UK alone is worth a whopping £16 billion.

    Streaming in the casino

    Some online casinos have developed incredible websites and apps with a great and interactive interface. The provision of high quality video streaming is a game changer here. Gone are the days of laggy and grainy images. Now you should expect anything less than sharp, instant visuals pretty much wherever you are in the world.

    Authentic experiences

    With live table games and professional dealers, watching and playing from the comfort of your own home can feel like a genuine, real-life experience, at a bricks and mortar casino. Whereas previous in the early days of online casinos, experiences were not immersive. Today, they are highly interactive.

    Streaming also promotes community building amongst players, which would far easier to attain compared to the text forums.

    Even the slots are live streamed

    Now you can even play slots that are live-streamed. Hideousslots.com lists £1 deposit casinos is just one of the many different slot games that are commonly available on live-streaming at various casinos.

    It’s safe to say that we are just at the beginning in terms of technological innovations that are changing how we are entertained. So sit back, watch the streamed show and see what unfolds next!
