Streaming, broadband and wireless used to be three distinct subsectors within media and communications. But increasingly, they are interconnected. In 2024, cable operators, led by Charter, began bundling direct-to-consumer streaming offerings into their video and broadband services. At the same time, cable operators continued to push into wireless. Meanwhile, streaming services prioritized profits over expanding content libraries, and wireless carriers sought to add lines among existing subscribers. All three subsectors showed signs of maturity in 2024, but they also found new ways to grow, setting the stage for fresh innovation in 2025.
