Upfront Stalls; Digital Waits.

Every week, Jack Myers shares his unique perspective on the state of the media and advertising business in this free video. Jack's full report and economic forecasts are available to members at www.myersbiz.net.

Even though some deals have already been completed and the cable network Upfront moves forward, broadcast network negotiations are stalled as the networks hold on CPM demands and word filters out from the agencies that broadcast network volume could be down more than our projected 2%-4%. Digital video negotiations are moving even more slowly. Watch this week’s Myers Media Business Network video and learn how broadcast and cable networks, program studios and distributors are successfully fending off You Tube. Yahoo, AOL, Alloy, Microsoft, Blip.tv and other digital video companies. When will digital technologies dominate the age-old TV business as audiences experience TV more than watch it? Jack Myers answers this question and more in his free weekly video at www.myersbiz.net. For the industry’s leading insights and market forecasts, join the Myers Media Business Network.
