Netflix, Disney, Walmart!? What’s going on in the world of streaming?

<p>This week Maddy and Sophie are taking a break, and showcasing a recent episode of The Dive. </p><br><p>Two reports released this week, one from Britain and a second from America, show just how much streaming services have disrupted broadcast TV.&nbsp;The first, from Britain’s Office of Communications shows how viewing time of traditional broadcast TV has dropped off a cliff, especially amongst young people.&nbsp;The second, from Nielsen, found that in July Americans spent more time watching streaming services than cable TV – the first time this has ever happened.&nbsp;But the whole industry is in a state of flux. Disney has just leapfrogged Netflix adding more subscribers while the OG steamer lost more than a million. There’s also been some famous failures: CNN+ and Quibi to name two. But, undeterred, Walmart of all places is looking to start their own streaming service.&nbsp;Heh?</p><p>Today Alec and Sascha discuss what’s the current state of play in the streaming wars?</p><br><p>Keep track of Sophie and Maddy between the episodes on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/yigcpodcast/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, or on <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@yigcpodcast?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, and come and be part of the conversation on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/778745913073961/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook with our You’re In Good Company Discussion Group</a>. </p><br><p>Got a question or a topic suggestion?
