Screens: Is the rise of streaming platforms making us watch more?

View descriptionShare

Streaming has changed everything in television and movies, offering us more choice than ever before, even more than titles available at the local video store.

In this episode, Cosmos journalist Jacinta Bowler tracks down one of the last video rentals in the country, and then fast forwards to experts Professor Amanda Lotz and

Associate Professor Ramon Lobato to view the evidence on whether the rise of streaming and smart TVs has changed the way we watch.

And veteran TV presenter Tony Jones tells us who's still watching the nightly news. 

This episode was produced by Petra Stock and edited by Andrew Wyrill.
