Top Companies in the Video Streaming Market

The global video streaming market size reached US$ 61.8 Billion in 2021. Video streaming refers to media broadcasting wherein audio, or video content is continuously delivered to a remote user in a stream of compressed data via the Internet. It relies on a player and stable internet connection for uncompressing and sending the audio data to speakers and video data to the display. It allows users to watch videos in real time instead of downloading and watching them later. It also offers enhanced convenience and instant access to content, thereby eliminating the need for storage space. As a result, video streaming has gained immense traction among the masses for entertainment purposes and business activities, including live table conferences, scheduling meetings, and communicating with customers internally.

As per the analysis by IMARC Group, the top companies in the video streaming industry are focusing on product innovations to meet the growing expectations of individuals for superior video quality, performance, and security. For instance, the leading players are integrating video streaming platforms with novel technologies, such as blockchain, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI), to improve video quality and user experience. These technological advancements aid in organizing, encoding, and distributing data, thereby streamlining the digital space. They also assist in editing, cinematography, voice-overs, scriptwriting, and other video production and uploading aspects. Additionally, various video streaming service providers are offering multiple subscription plans and flexible payment models to expand their customer base. Other factors, including the increasing penetration of over-the-top (OTT) platforms and connected devices, recent advancements in cloud computing, and rising partnerships among key players to offer more region-specific content, are propelling the market growth. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market value to reach US$ 183.2 Billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 19.8% during 2022-2027.
