A Roy Morgan Single Source survey has found that 14.9 per cent of Australians aged 14+ did not watch any commercial TV on a normal weekday in the year to December 2015, compared with 4.9 per cent in 2008. The survey also shows that 20.7 per cent of Australians aged 25-34 watched no commercial TV in 2015, up from 7.6 per cent in 2008. Likewise, the number of 14-24 year-olds who do not watch any commercial TV has risen from seven per cent to 18.8 per cent since 2008, although Australians in the 35-49 and 50+ age groups have been slower to abandon commercial TV. Meanwhile, Australians aged 14-24 or 25-34 with Subscription Video On Demand now watch 13 minutes less TV on average per day than their counterparts without it, and the difference is even starker among older groups.
