japan.internet.com recently reported on a survey by goo Research into mobile video use, the fifth time this regular survey has been conducted.

Being on a non-unlimited plan, I don’t watch any video on my mobile phone, and anyway I have a portable audio and video device on which I watch video. I’m currently making my way through The Goodies at a one episode per day pace, downloaded to my PC then converted to MPEG4 for consumption on the mobile device. Read the rest of this entry »
japan.internet.com recently reported on a survey conducted by goo Research into video sharing services, and found, not much to anyone’s surprise I would guess, that very few had actually paid for video content online.
Demographics
Between the 10th and 13th of April 2012 1,095 members of the goo Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 52.9% of the samples were male, 16.6% in their teens, 18.3% in their twenties, 21.6% in their thirties, 16.0% in their forties, 15.6% in their fifties, and 11.9% aged sixty or older.
I use video sites sometimes, myself. I keep wondering if I should get into the video blogging business – just straightforward talking head nonsense, but I’ve got a good face for radio, and a good voice for newspapers. I’d probably also need some shtick – I remember being quite impressed a few years ago by someone who did a podcast whilst walking through Tokyo, but it all boils down to that I’m just too shy to do my thing in public!

goo Research recently conducted their third regular survey into mobile phone video watching, reported on by japan.internet.com, which revealed that more people are watching video on their mobiles.
Demographics
Between the 16th and 20th of March 2012 1,041 mobile phone-using (including smartphone) members of the goo Research monitor panel answered a mobile-phone based questionnaire. 57.7% of the sample were female, 2.5% in their teens, 24.0% in their twenties, 34.2% in their thirties, 28.0% in their forties, and 11.3% aged fifty or older.
Possibly or possibily not connected to this topic is a new broadcast channel for mobile phones that has been launched this month, called Not-tv. Today at the office someone had a program guide, and there was three channels available, but it seemed mostly Korean dramas, US second-tier series, and the occasional minor Hollywood film. The other 7 or 8 One Seg versions of standard television channels are free to view, but this is 420 yen per month, with, as far as I can see, just a chat channel tacked onto the broadcasts for live interaction with the viewers and listeners.

japan.internet.com recently reported on a survey conducted by goo Research, their second regular survey into video use, specifically focused on mobile use.

Between the 2nd and 7th of December 2011 1,001 members of the goo Research research panel completed a private mobile phone-based questionnaire. 55.0% of the sample were female, 3.0% in their teens, 23.2% in their twenties, 38.7% in their thirties, 26.1% in their forties, and 9.1% aged fifty or older.
Just for the sake of this survey, I did a search for “cat video” (in Japanese) on my smartphone, and here’s the one I watched – ack, it’s not embeddable, so here’s another one:
Yet another regular survey was reborn, this time it was goo Research’s look at mobile phone video use, expanded now to explicitly include smartphones.
Demographics
Between the 5th and 9th of September 2011 1,000 members of the goo Research mobile monitors completed a private mobile phone or smartphone-based survey. 58.1% of the sample were female, 3.4% in their teens, 22.3% in their twenties, 38.0% in their thirties, 26.9% in their forties, and 9.4% aged fifty or older.
I’m not sure what silly cat clips fall under, although I would guess that it would be more likely to be self- or friend-shot video rather than other, judging by the relative percentages! Read the rest of this entry »

I’ve never watched video on my mobile; I have the feature to download from either PC or my Diga video recorder, but I don’t actually have a set of headphones for use with the phone! Read the rest of this entry »
The results from this recent survey from goo Research and reported on by japan.internet.com into online services may not be too reliable for SNS as number two and number three in the list, GREE and Mobage Town, are both mobile phone-based social gaming sites and I feel that the demographic they appeal to differs significantly from the more PC-oriented goo monitor group. I have no data to back up this, so take it with an appropriately-sized pinch of salt.

My mobile phone is capable of movie playback, but I don’t believe I’ve ever watched any video, not even playback of video shot with the mobile’s camera. Read the rest of this entry »
A recent survey from goo Research into mobile phones and video, their 62nd monthly survey, reported on by japan.internet.com produced some interesting results, although I’m not sure of how to interpret them as there is an inbuilt bias in this particular type of goo survey.
Demographics
Between the 15th and 22nd of July 2010 1,012 members of the goo Research mobile monitor group completed a private mobile phone internet-based questionnaire. 55.0% of the sample were female, 3.4% in their teens, 27.4% in their twenties, 35.8% in their thirties, 25.1% in their forties, and 8.4% aged fifty or older.
Mobile phone-based surveys tend to attract heavy users of mobile phones, and heavy users tend to be frequent phone upgraders, so tend to be a bit more ahead of the curve hardware-wise, as perhaps Q2 reveals.
I also strongly suspect that there is a relationship between having an iPhone and watching more video more frequently, be it pre-recorded or streamed from YouTube, but unfortunately there is no data on this. Read the rest of this entry »
