The BBC is worrying less about competition from over-the-top (OTT) streaming-video service like Netflix, and more about the danger of losing the attention of young viewers distracted by their devices, according to director of audiences, Nick North.
“But social will grow and become the primary activity: the kid sitting there with the TV on, but they’re on their [mobile] screen. So it’s where the attention lies from screen to screen.”
In my opinion I believe that the BBC's main competiton is going to come from YouTube. This is due to the fact that YouTube is slowly becoming TV with the recent advancements that they are making with Freddiew getting founding for VGHS (TV production on YouTube) IndyCar showcasing all their races on YouTube and the general popularity of the site itself. Way go on TV and watch a bunch of program that I don't like when I can watch content I want to see whenever I want from people that I can support and personally talk to as well.

Facebook is to trial “reactions” options for users responding to content, proving that merely being able to “like” something was somewhat limiting the human emotional spectrum.
It can feel awkward to like a post about somebody’s beloved dog dying – but how else to show appreciation of the cute tribute photo of them as young child and puppy? Zuckerberg acknowledged back in September interviews that this was an issue:
This advancement means nothing. Facebook adding emoji's doesn't add anything to Facebook. It sounds harsh but adding extra emojis to people's statuses doesn't change anything because people were already adding emojis on statuses before this update even happened via the keyboard anyway. So this advancement means nothing for Facebook it means nothing for the Internet and its means nothing to me.
