Broadband content technology and delivery vendor Maven Networks has released a survey on user behavior when it comes to video delivered to the desktop, using a standalone app…(I have, in the past, expressed skepticism on the rationale of a standalone branded app for consumers..desktop clutter etc…)
According to the survey, 71 percent of consumers would download a branded video channel to their desktop…70 percent of broadband users claim that they would use the service at least once a week, with 25 to 34 year olds being the most likely to use it that often.
Concerns: The biggest concern broadband users have with the new service is the perception that it will use a lot of hard drive space. The length of time for the initial download of a channel also generates concern…Other concerns included the fear that the channel would be used to serve popup ads or that marketers would collect personal information about the consumers viewing habits..
