X wants to compete with YouTube starting from TV
Elon Musk is a volcano of ideas and often knows how to be unpredictableso much so that he announced a absolute novelty for one of his properties, namely the social network X. His dream has always been to create one Everything Appthat is, an app with which to do everything.
In fact, it seems like this dream is taking shape little by little: with a post on the social network (which we leave below) he revealed that it will soon be possible see long-form X videos directly on your TV.
In case you are interested in this news, we leave you our list of the best TVs, divided into various categories, where you can find the one that’s right for you.
From what emerges, this functionality will be available initially in samsung TVs and Amazon Fire TVs, with which it will be possible to watch long-lasting videos, such as those on YouTube.
This is the result of user behavior on Xbecause, according to what Musk said, 8 out of 10 people spend their time on X watching videos, so the idea is to create a video-oriented platformwhich can offer content to be seen directly on TV and no longer on the smartphone created by influencers and famous people present on the social network.
On the other hand, this could be a move for recover part of the usersbecause, according to the Edison Research study, X would have lost around 30% of US users compared to 2023: therefore, to remain competitive, X is seeking the support of those who attract people to the social network.
In this way, thanks to the (presumed) new users and thanks to the long videos to watch on TV, he can insert the advertising in videos, just like YouTube.
