Thanks to “strong” brand marketing and major media events like the Presidential inauguration, the Super Bowl and the NCAAs college basketball finals, online video usage among U.S. consumer grew 13% year-over-year and mobile jumped more than 50%, according to new data from Nielsens “Three Screen” report.

But while consumers are increasingly choosing to watch video on the “best screen available,” traditional TV remains the screen of choice, according to the quarterly analysis from Nielsens A2/M2 “Anywhere Anytime Media Measurement” initiative.

During the first quarter, the average American watched approximately 153 hours of TV every month at home, which represented a 1.2% increase year-over-year.

Between work and home, the 131 million Americans who watched video online consumed an average of about 3 hours of video each month. The 13.4 million Americans who watch video on mobile phones, meanwhile, watched an average of about 3.5 hours of mobile video each month. Overall, Nielsen found that consumers time with TV, Internet and Mobile video continues to increase across the board.

Looking ahead, with the continued adoption of broadband and new technology, Nielsen expects online video audiences to continue growing.

Mobile video viewing has grown a significant 52% from the previous year, up to 13.4 million Americans. “Much of this growth continues to come from increased mobile content and the rise of the mobile web as a viewing option,” the report suggests.

Of all different age groups, 18- to-24-year-olds show signs of watching DVR and online video the same amount of time — “time-shifting” 5 hours, 47 minutes per month, and watching video online 5 hours, 3 minutes each month.

Younger Americans More Likely to Use Internet TV Than DVR, Study Says

By Daisy Whitney

Internet television is trumping digital video recorders as an on-demand device for the younger generation, according to the latest findings from research firm Solutions Research Group.

The study found that 70% of online Americans in the 18- to 34-year-old demographic have watched TV online at some point, compared to 36% who have viewed a show on a DVR or a TiVo. That suggests the young Web users will increasingly watch their shows on the Web rather than via traditional means.

In fact, the number of online Americans watching television shows on the Web has doubled in the last two years. Half of Internet users in the U.S. have watched a TV show on the Web, up from one-quarter in the fall of 2006.

The data comes from a study conducted in November of 1,200 Americans age 12 and older.

SRG also reported that awareness of Hulu.com is on the upswing, with 24% of online Americans now familiar with the News Corp./NBC Universal-owned site, up from 15% in the summer. The site still skews male, however: Two-thirds of its visitors are men and their average age is 33. That’s good news for advertisers, because the 18-34 male demo is hard to reach on TV.
