Adam Pally Quotes

The combination of cheaper and more widespread broadband and increased mobile usage is turning us all into independent viewers.

Television viewing has become for me a completely different experience, because I don't watch shows on a weekly basis. I wait until the DVD or I TiVo everything and wait until the end of a season and watch it all over a weekend. For me that's a really satisfying experience, like reading a book.

If you're watching a film on your television, is it no longer a film because you're not watching it in a theatre? If you watch a TV show on your iPad, is it no longer a TV show? The device and the length are irrelevant; the labels are useless, except perhaps to agents and managers and lawyers, who use these labels to conduct business deals.

And the consumer doesn't care. They don't watch networks, they watch TV shows.

People are really into on-demand consumption. I watch everything myself on demand.

We don't have cable, so I don't watch a lot of traditional TV. I watch a lot of Netflix, and there's this thing in Canada called Show Me, and then I also get things from iTunes.

I think when YouTube first came out, everyone was thinking people were just going to watch five-minute shows from now on and that people didn't have the patience anymore to watch longer programmes. But instead, everyone is binge watching and consuming ten-hour programmes and box sets of shows, so it is really interesting.

I love the place 'Clone Wars' has on Netflix; it's very accessible, and I think it's great.

I myself downloaded and watched 'The Wire,' 'Breaking Bad,' 'Downton Abbey,' 'Mad Men' and 'The Walking Dead' on my iPad while walking on a treadmill. I never turned a TV on once. I never inserted a DVD.

Everything's changed. The technology is the big thing changing now, the way movies like 'Alice' or 'Avatar' are made. And technology on the other side, the audience side. Word spreads so fast now on a movie, with the Internet, and piracy is something coming down the line like in the music industry.

You know, I'm almost out of the habit of watching episodic television now.

I am away so much, so I rarely see live TV, but I use iPlayer to catch programmes.

The U.K. has been very progressive about on-demand, and the iPlayer has been a great invention. It has trained a generation of viewers to expect on-demand - unfortunately, it trains them to expect free!

Right now, more people enjoy movies, music, television and movies than they do video games.

The future of television is not on television but online. A majority of us are turning to our computers and mobile devices for news and entertainment, Millennials especially.

I download TV shows more and more, especially from the U.S.

It is a significant acknowledgment that the way people are watching television is changing and the model is quickly changing.

There are literally tens of thousands of very good content providers in the world that don't distribute their content through TV channels.

People don't listen to terrestrial radio. They don't find their music that way. They don't get their news that way. They go to blogs. They go through Sirius/XM. They go through all these different places.

For me, personally, I watch pretty much everything on Netflix, and I watch all the episodes in a row, when I can.

My kids watch everything downloaded; they have no idea what the numbers or the names of the channels mean, except, 'FX makes the show that I see on my computer.' So it's harder to get a show on the air, but at the same time, there are a lot of terrific shows.

People just don't sit down and watch shows live anymore. They DVR it. They stream it; they watch it on Netflix or iTunes.

I think that network TV is going to either have to reinvent itself or it's going to have to be more competitive - there are just so many options now with streaming and everything.

The future of TV is not on TV. It's on the smaller screens we are all using in front of the television set.

The whole industry is changing because so many people watch things on DVR, and they watch things on other platforms, and I think everybody is kind of scratching their heads about how this is going to play out.
