TV and Pay TV ratings improving in accuracy


Recommended Posts



That box contained a microphone and which would be sampled by the survey company computer and the waveform compared to all the TV station outputs. If one was identical then it was recorded as a viewer. The box had no idea how many viewers there were and if they were asleep!

muirecachau,

It is up to the viewer to be honest and accurate, just like it was with the diary system. The new boxes at lease is accurate with regard to what channel (FTA or and pay) is being displayed. It cannot tell if the viewer has gone to sleep during the program!

 

We are yet to get a perfect system, particularly because of privacy issues.

What would this "perfect system" be? Please elaborate on privacy issues... wouldn't any new system simply be an opt in/out situation?
