GA Russell Posted May 20 Author Report Posted May 20 California's economy is bigger than Japan's. Quote
Dan Gould Posted May 29 Report Posted May 29 A little surprised Florida is as low as it is, and wondering what makes MI so much lower than any other state. Especially factoring in prevalence of winter weather - consider the rest of the northern tier of states. Quote
GA Russell Posted June 18 Author Report Posted June 18 I'm surprised that the VW Jetta is ranked #8. I thought it was more expensive than that. Quote
JSngry Posted June 18 Report Posted June 18 Are all those prices for base models? Any common options or packages included? Quote
GA Russell Posted June 19 Author Report Posted June 19 History! Nielsen reports that last month streaming enjoyed a bigger audience than broadcast and cable combined. https://thestreamable.com/streaming-tv-viewing-beats-linear-time-may-2025 Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 3 Report Posted July 3 Interesting to me is how many of these countries have socialized medicine. So many people forego potential life saving procedures because they can't afford them & that has to factor in here. Quote
felser Posted July 5 Report Posted July 5 Not warm and fuzzy that all three of our cars (2 Accords and a CRV) show up on the list 😦 Quote
GA Russell Posted Monday at 05:14 PM Author Report Posted Monday at 05:14 PM I am surprised that China is #2, and that Mexico is ahead of Italy and Spain. Quote
GA Russell Posted Tuesday at 11:18 PM Author Report Posted Tuesday at 11:18 PM (edited) Broadcast TV's ratings for June were a historically low 18.5%. https://thestreamable.com/broadcast-tv-historical-low-netflix-gains-streaming-nielsen-the-gauge-june Edited Tuesday at 11:19 PM by GA Russell Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted Wednesday at 01:04 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 01:04 AM There's a few things I don't get about "broadcast TV" in this context... the chart has Cable TV at 23.4%. Where I live, cable TV is how we all get broadcast TV. What's the difference here? The other thing I must be missing is if broadcast TV means network television and if that's the case, of course June has the lowest ratings. Most TV shows switched to showing repeats in June. Viewership for repeated episodes is always lower than when first broadcast. Quote

Viewership for repeated episodes is always lower than when first broadcast. Broadcast TV refers to traditional radio frequency local broadcasts which bounce off the ionosphere and can be received by a dedicated TV receiver set. While you may receive a similar selection of channels via cable, the term refers to the method of broadcast, ie radio broadcast. This is sometimes referred to as OTA, over the air.

JSngry Posted Wednesday at 02:31 AM Report Posted Wednesday at 02:31 AM But even broadcast signal is digital now. You got subchannels and whatnot, and our cable company carries almost all of them. And almost all network shows can be streamed at any time. Time-shifting as the called it when it was done with a VCR. I think the reality is probably a lot more nuanced than this report says Quote
