QUESTION 5 OF 34

In your opinion, what has been the biggest advancement in streaming technology this past year?

Display that you have an invested interest in the technology industry by discussing your thoughts on recent advancements. Mention how you stay current on industry changes and new technology.

"This year has seen many great advancements in streaming technology. Recently, I read an article on what to watch for streaming this year. The one that stood out most to me was the topic of Virtual Reality and 360 video streaming. The article mentioned that experts believe immersive content is becoming more accessible and more of a focus now."

"A lot of people complained in the past about the latency on live broadcasts and other interactive broadcasts. Often, when streaming, the viewer is behind a few seconds, which may seem trivial, but it's a real issue for live shows that are audience interactive. I will use American Idol, for example, where the viewers text in their votes. I know there has been a call for internet-delivered content to offer higher speeds, and this year alone, we are already seeing latency improvements up to five seconds which is incredible."

"For me, the reintroduction of nostalgic shows and movies has been great and provided great family time for us and our kids. Netflix has rebooted some great classics, including Cobra Kai. We've enjoyed going back to watch the Karate Kid movie and then getting into the series."
