In fact, NATPE and CES has commissioned
a consumer research study for presentation in early 2015 to learn about that
very topic.
"The question of how and where people are discovering content — on any device — is one that we need to gain a better understanding of as an industry," remarked NATPE CEO Rod Perth. "This research study will reveal fresh guidance on the how and why of viewer discovery."
A December 2014 survey from Hub Entertainment Research indicates that more and more TV viewers are turning to online sources for their entertainment data solutions.
A majority of the respondents, 60 percent, agreed that a “universal listing that lets them find shows across all TV sources” would be beneficial; 48 percent have said that they lean toward sources that allow for “easy” television show discovery.
Nielsen also released new data in their third-quarter Total Audience Report, in which SVP of Insights Dounia Turrill highlighted that “consumers are shaping their own content-discovery experience.”

The recommendation engine is one type of service that many firms are using for television
content curation and personalization.
Michael Ekstrand, a recommendations expert and
computer-sciences professor at Texas State University, said
that systems like that “can result in a substantial lift in peoples'
movie-watching [and] purchasing.”
Being able to reliably provide robust TV recommendations for
viewers is a task of utmost importance, and arguably required for film and
television providers who hope to retain and maintain viewers who seek to find fresh
and engaging programming.
