The Baseball Media Market has seen steady growth in the Sports Market within G7 nan, driven by factors like increased digital adoption, growing interest in health among consumers, and the convenience of online services. However, this growth is minimal due to competition and limited demand for baseball media content.
Customer preferences: The rise of streaming services and online platforms has drastically changed the way fans consume baseball media. With on-demand access and personalized content, consumers are moving away from traditional cable TV and towards digital platforms. Additionally, there is a growing demand for interactive and immersive experiences, as well as an increasing focus on social media and fantasy sports. This shift towards digital preferences is also evident in the G7 countries, where smartphone and internet usage is high and continues to rise. With a younger and tech-savvy fan base, the baseball media market is adapting to meet the changing preferences of consumers.
Trends in the market: In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the use of streaming services for live baseball games in the G7 countries. This trend has been driven by the rise of cord-cutting and the increasing popularity of mobile devices, making it more convenient for fans to watch games on-the-go. This has led to an increase in the number of streaming services offering live baseball games, resulting in fierce competition within the baseball media market. As a result, industry stakeholders are investing more in developing user-friendly interfaces and enhancing the overall viewing experience. This trend is expected to continue, with potential implications for traditional media channels as they may struggle to compete with the convenience and flexibility offered by streaming services.
Local special circumstances: In G7 countries, the Baseball Media Market within the Sports Market is uniquely influenced by factors such as the popularity and pervasiveness of professional baseball, cultural traditions surrounding the sport, and the competitive landscape of other media markets. In Japan, for example, the Baseball Media Market is dominated by the popularity of the Nippon Professional Baseball League, which translates into high viewership and advertising revenues. In the United States, where baseball has been embraced as a cultural pastime, media companies compete fiercely for broadcasting rights, driving up the value of the overall market. In South Korea, the government has taken steps to promote the growth of baseball, leading to a surge in media coverage and corresponding market growth.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The Baseball Media Market within the Sports Market is heavily influenced by macroeconomic factors such as technological advancements, advertising trends, and consumer spending habits. In G7 countries, where there is typically higher consumer spending and a more developed media and entertainment industry, the Baseball Media Market thrives. However, smaller and less developed countries may struggle to generate significant revenue in this market. Additionally, global economic trends, such as the rise of streaming services and mobile platforms, have greatly impacted the way consumers access and consume baseball media content. These trends have also influenced the strategies of media companies and advertisers in targeting and engaging with audiences, further shaping the dynamics of the Baseball Media Market.
Data coverage:
The data encompasses B2B revenues. Figures are based on media spending from businesses to several clubs. That also includes the revenues from advertising as this is part of media and broadcasting contracts the individual clubs have with their respective leagues.Modeling approach / Market size:
Market sizes are determined through a top-down approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per ticket, price on sport goods). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.Forecasts:
In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function or linear forecasting, as it fits the development of either strong growing markets or more sophistacted and saturated markets, such as soccer in Europe.Additional notes:
The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is considered at a country-specific level. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development). We also account for the different cycles of international tournaments, such as world cups or continent cups. Consumer Insights data is reweighted for representativeness.Mon - Fri, 9am - 6pm (EST)
