What's old is new again: bundling streaming services

Entertainment and theme park spending growth has been weaker as demand normalizes from the post-reopening surge. But despite difficult comps, domestic attendance for key parks is flat to up with small and new attractions as a key driver. Indeed, we will get an important major new attraction in Orlando next year. In streaming, viewers can expect to see more personalized ads and ads that allow for more direct purchasing. Combined with election spend, there's a good backdrop for ad spend in the second half of the year. Bundled content is back, in streaming form, and what's interesting is that these bundles are often combining content that's not related-like a slimmed down cable TV package of old. And while overspending on content remains a risk, some secondary sports deals are coming in below expectations and premier sports can drive viewership and advertising for other content areas. The opportunity in media remains significant and below expectations while premier sports can drive meaningful viewership.
