G+_Tracey Allen Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I think that they track online media too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Deis Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 It may not be a 'big deal'. But it certainly is a powerful deal. You will be representing the media habits of those like us who have cut the cord. In that sense, you and the others who have been randomly selected will start to shape the compensation of those who rely on advertising dollars to make a living. I'm not sure how that will all work out in the epoch of the long tail, but I'm sure Nielsen has spent a great deal of time trying to figure out the nuances of that question.

G+_Josh Frye Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I got one of those a year or so ago and was not able to fill out their diary book. As being a cord cutter there was no space for saying I watched a tv show on the broadcasters website. Or Netlfix, Hulu or any other website.

G+_Jason Eckelstafer Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I think Nielson and several others are now tracking a show's viewership by anyone that's watched the show up to 3 days after it aired. That way they get DVR and streaming services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Scott Wyant Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I got one of those a couple of years ago. I sent it back blank I believe there is a place to comment and there I stated that I do not consume ANY Nielsen measured media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Scott Wyant It's been close to 45 days now. Don't know if they ever called me. Apparently unless I answer the first ring whenever they call, they won't leave a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
