This allows viewers to watch live and on-demand content from anywhere, anytime they want, with any number of devices and apps. Viewers do not need traditional satellite or cable subscriptions to watch OTT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is Connected TV?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Connected TV, or CTV for short, is any device that allows a television to play video content over the Internet. &nbsp;CTV devices typically stream using apps downloaded to the device with some apps requiring paid subscriptions. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CTV includes devices like Smart TVs and external devices like Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, Apple TV, and Chromecast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is the difference between CTV and OTT?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OTT is the method for delivering video content and CTV is the device on which the viewer streams content to their television.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example: If you watch Netflix on your phone, you are streaming OTT content. If you are watching Netflix through a Chromecast that is plugged into your TV, well you are streaming OTT content over CTV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is Connected TV Advertising?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Connected TV advertising is a segment of online video advertising targeted specifically to connected television devices. &nbsp;Publishers often find CTV advertising a challenge to optimize, because of the lack of personal identifiable information (PII) which is typically used to match consumers with advertisers online advertising. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CTV advertising has a high impact due to excellent viewability on television. &nbsp;CTV inventory is often sold programmatically, and can generate significant revenue with the correct advertising strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested in CTV advertising?
