The average American watches more than five hours of TV per day, but pretty soon that leisure time may be dominated by YouTube and other online video services.
In an address at CES 2016, YouTube's chief business officer Robert Kyncl argued that digital video will be the single biggest way that Americans spend their free time by 2020 – more than watching TV, listening to music, playing video games, or reading.
The amount of time people spend watching TV each day has been pretty steady for a few years now, Mr. Kyncl pointed out, while time spent watching online videos has grown by more than 50 percent each year. Data from media research firm Nielsen shows that it's not just young people watching online videos, either: adults aged 35 to 49 spent 80 percent more time on video sites in 2014 than in 2013, and adults aged 50 to 64 spent 60 percent more time on video sites over the same time period.
Why the shift?

I don't define my life from my job, nor what i am from my profession.
LOL yeah we already heard :
i am not in the USA
Note that almost everyone in the USA believes in the opposite of your statement. I more or less agree with you, but there's just one of me, for better or worse. The opposite of what you wrote is by far one of our dominant cultural beliefs.

I lived in the USA for a bit and while what you say is indeed true, at the same time i met also people who are not like that.
Usually the most interesting ones...
Surely the only ones with i am still in contact today.
Don't be too hard on your fellow countrymen, i could start bitching about mine too. Luckly, good people is evenly distributed. Unluckly, stupid people is too.
