1 Interactive Television Metrics, Definitions and Descriptions CTAM Advanced Cable Solutions Consortium itv Committee Q Page 1
2 Executive Summary CTAM s Advanced Cable Solutions Consortium (ACSC) is comprised of industry executives from cable, network, programming, hardware and software companies who are CTAM Corporate Initiatives Partners. The consortium works together to influence the design, development & delivery of cable products and services such as video on demand, interactive television, advanced video and multiplatform to name a few. As an extension to the work done previously on defining VOD metrics, the itv working group has been collaborating to identify and define a recommended set of baseline metrics for interactive television. The goal is to establish a core set of itv metrics that are important to all audiences and that can be measured and recorded for different categories of interactive television applications. The four areas of focus to date are: General metrics that apply to all types of applications Request for Information (RFI) metrics Trivia and polling metrics Telescoping metrics This draft of recommended metrics has been shared with other industry organizations and associations for review and input with the understanding that this information will continue to evolve as the products and services evolve. Many thanks to the members of the itv Metrics task force for their time and commitment in support of this project. Corporate Partner companies who supported the project are: BlackArrow Comcast Media Center itaas Bright House Networks Cablevision Canoe Ventures Comcast Comcast Spotlight Cox Communications FourthWall Media Fox Cable Networks Microsoft Showtime Networks Time Warner Cable If you have questions about this document, please contact Halima Umaru-Mann at or Halima@ctam.com.

3 Introduction and Purpose The roots of Interactive Television (itv) can be traced back literally a few decades. But in recent years technological advances in digital set-top boxes (STBs) and the software installed in them have made possible the appearance of interactive on-screen applications. These itv applications include Request for Information (RFI), where viewers can click and receive coupons, brochures, samples, etc. and Polling & Trivia, whereby consumers answer questions that are contextually linked to a program s content, thereby fostering viewer engagement. The purpose of this document is to provide a preliminary set of itv metrics to the industry that can be considered for performance evaluation and, ultimately, as a basis for evolving transactional or currency measures. Establishing these metrics now is a critical first step towards setting the industry foundation for the anticipated increase in itv activity during the years to come. A word about itv apps how format of this document: Unlike Standard: 30 commercials, itv applications are available in a variety of formats. For example, some RFIs are built solely for a live TV experience while others may provide an option to telescope to a digital channel where further viewer immersion is possible. Some apps are two interaction screens deep while others may be more. Each, however, has a start and potential finish point and this document is set up to reflect the entire itv sequence, with one comprehensive spot-level example which starts with 100,000 itv ad impressions on page 2 and concludes with 302 leads on page 5. The entire process is captured graphically on pages 6 (RFI) and 7 (Polling &Trivia). Metric classifications: Throughout the document, the metrics have been labeled according to how they might be used on daily practice: Core Metrics basic interactive application measures that could potentially be included in standard itv performance and transactional reports. These metrics will be reported to the interactive content owner and buyers in all instances. Diagnostic Metrics detailed interactions or steps that provide a deeper understanding of why or how an interactive application performed. These measures may be used for advanced analyses for itv application development and/or media placement optimization. Engagement Metrics - measures that capture time spent or ability to hold the viewer audience. Universe Metrics describes the actual number of available itv devices or homes in the marketplace Finally, these metrics are specific to interactivity on the television, currently associated with set-top activity; they will be updated as the technology evolves and interactive television can be measured on devices not associated with a set-top.

6 Glossary of Terms Term Application/Asset Content Owner Duplicate Response Footprint Future Metric Interaction Interactive Television (itv) Interactive Television Session Interactive TV Household (itvhh) Lead Screen View Telescoping Time Out Tune Away View Now Viewing Device (Device) View Later Definition The company or organization that is responsible for the creation and distribution of the interactive programming which is delivered to the TV through the set-top. The instances when an authenticated household, individual or device reacts to or attempts to react to an interactive session more than once. Total coverage area encompassing where a Service Provider s VOD service is offered. A metric that will be desired and reported in the future when it can be recorded and reported. Examples include metrics from devices other than a set-top, such as tablets, phones, etc. When the viewer actually engages with an interactive asset or application during an interactive session. Interactions can be negative (exit, no, tune away) or positive (yes, request information, etc.) The ability of viewers to interact with television content immediately as they are viewing it. There are different degrees of interactivity from very basic (channel switching) to increasingly more sophisticated forms such as On Demand, request for more information, telescoping, etc. A measureable segment of available interactive content by a unique user, by viewing device. Today the viewing device is a TV connected to the set-top. Any household in a footprint that has the ability to and is authenticated to engage with interactive content delivered to the viewing device. Currently the viewing device is a TV connected to a set-top. A lead is created when a prospective consumer in an itv enabled Household (itvhh) shows interest in a product or service by interacting with the asset or application on the television screen, by which authorizing the content owner to follow-up with the consumer with the offer. A lead is not a conversion, but could be the first step to conversion where applicable. Display of an image or images that appear as full screen or as an overlay to the linear content being watched on that particular viewing device. Currently the viewing device is a TV connected to a set-top. A form of interactivity where the viewer can link from the interactive asset or application on display to corresponding content, such as a VOD channel, a website, or a new interactive session content. The instance when an interaction session timed out as a result of no viewer response. The interaction when a viewer changes the channel away from an interactive asset or application. This is one type of negative interaction The interaction when a viewer selects the view now option of an interactive asset or application being viewed on the television. The television connected to a set-top that is displaying the interactive asset or application. Currently the viewing device is the television connected to a settop. When a viewer chooses to delay viewing of additional content from an interactive asset or app. by selecting the view later option. Page 6

Channel changes as percent of initial interactions. Calculated by dividing tune aways by the initial interaction. A metric which compares usage to the potential itv customer universe either within a MVPD footprint or a DMA; based upon itv HH data comparable to a rating. Calculated by dividing the total itv HH by the number of HH that interacted with the session. Could be by spot, by flight, by day, week, or month.
