HOW DOES IT WORK?
Scratching your head trying to decipher the difference between “OTT” and “CTV” and how they relate to each other? Welcome to the brave new world of on-demand video viewing.
Historically, video content has been delivered to the consumer’s TV through a cable or satellite provider via a set-top box.
Today people are watching their favorite content on the go and content providers are giving consumers the ability to stream their favorite shows on the internet (using laptops mobile devices and tablets). This streaming takes place over the top of this closed infrastructure without requiring users to subscribe to a pay TV service. This new wave of streaming is called over the top or “OTT”.
But how does connected or “CTV” fit into the picture? CTV is a living room television that’s connected to the internet – it can stream OTT content through applications. A regular TV can easily become a connected to TV through such things as gaming consoles and multimedia devices like Roku or Apple TV (anything that allows that TV to connect to OTT content through the public internet enhancing the living room viewing experience).
In many cases TVs are built with internet connectivity included – making it a “smart TV” So, while some might think that is synonymous with connected TV there is a difference. OTT is the content that’s being streamed through the public internet onto a laptop, mobile device, tablet or connected TV. Connected TV is simply one of those devices through which that OTT content can be consumed.
With Video+ your video advertising can be served to your customers on whichever platform they’re watching on.
