No longer in the long term. News and entertainment are increasingly covered by the network. In my age group (~30), I also don't know anyone who's still looking far away and their children aren't raised with the TV. And the older generations who are still watching television are not getting younger.
Television will not be abolished in the next few years, however, until then several decades will pass.
My knowledge is that from about 35 years old people are still watching TV and from 40 anyway the most. Not necessarily for entertainment, but for news.
I give television, especially the news channels, about 40 years.
I also do not believe that all public law will be suspended at the same time.
When the numbers of spectators are going to fall, I think the regional stations are turned off, then the ZDF and finally the first.
I think it has a future. It may have to be rethought and revolutionized, but the wise minds surely find some good ways.
I think the streaming services are making life difficult for each other. There are more and more providers. Netflix and Amazon are becoming more and more difficult now where large corporations like Disney and Paramount have started their own platforms.
I myself have Amazon Prime but still mostly watch linear television.
There will be a future of linear television. It is, however, limited to the programs while improving the media libraries. It seems important that the audience has easier access to them. Today the spectator doesn't even know what it can be accessed to programs in the media libraries.
Why not? Why would I pay extra for Netflix and Co?
Well, is there any kind of government constraint still contemporary would be the question?
That's a good question. Currently, most people will answer this question with "yes".
Wait another 30 years if the number of spectators, according to estimates, has fallen by about 45%.
The contributions were then abolished or severely reduced.
In any case, in the short term and in the medium term, probably not in the long term.
I'm 22 now and I have the impression that at my age no one is watching.
But the "TV limit" is not much above my age.
Many acquaintances that are so mid-30 look regularly far so I mean the normal program.
I think that the "classical television" where films or series are running at a certain time and advertising in between will survive about 50 to 60 years.
If the users of TV viewers in 20 years will then rapidly decrease again, the number of TV stations will also be reduced.
I believe that if they still exist, the public-law transmitters will remain at the end.
The ÖR will become less and less in time. I mean that the individual broadcasters of the federal states will disappear with time.
But I think it's at least. 1 transmitter, something like "The German Television" with only one channel will give very, very long.
No, I don't think so. I haven't had a TV for more than 15 years. Even my parents start to watch ZDF & Co. in the media library. I mean, what do you want? Incredibly long advertising blocks, old and heavily cut series and movies and pay for a good image quality, although I can have that better on the net? It makes no sense to make a TV
I just put a TV in my house because I have to pay the fee anyway in Austria, where I live. I got a little flat screen from Saturn.
Here in DE, although you only have the opportunity to watch the public law, you have no one.
No, I have my laptop and when guests come, I have a projector (mostly for games)
In Austria, the same rules apply as in Germany from 1 January 2024. That's why I got one now. A relatively cheap for 350 €.
It probably doesn't have a future. The standard TV must soon be revolutionized or it dies out.
I don't think it will die very soon without revolution, as many people 40+ are still watching television.
Without change, I give the television 30 – max. 40 years.
Nope. I am am amazed every time I visit my mother that is there. Apart from her, I practically don't know anyone who still looks at linear television.
I'm still looking.
No, of course, only exponential, because this rises stronger 😉
Not for me.
Is the exception if I look directly.
First and foremost as a message channel. It will continue to lose importance in the entertainment sector.
I just got a TV because I have to pay for the forced fee anyway.
I inform myself on many channels – social media and also normal newspapers online.
But that's 3 – 4x a week, I'll turn on the TV and watch the news.
