Use of online video services (such as YouTube) in Belgium 2016-2019, by age

Published by H. Tankovska, Apr 9, 2021
Use of online video sharing services such as YouTube decreased among Generation Z and Millennials in Belgium in 2019 when compared to 2018. This conclusion was drawn from survey results that looked into online activities from individuals in Belgium and its three regions: Dutch-speaking Flanders, French-language Wallonia and the Brussels-Capital Region (the city of Brussels with its surrounding villages). Penetration among 16-to-24-year-olds decreased by three percentage points between 2018 and 2019. Interestingly, whilst user penetration decreased among younger age groups, it grew among the older groups. The largest increase was found among those aged 45 to 54.

[To watch other online video material from video sharing services (e.g. YouTube)]. (In Belgian Dutch: "Voor welke van de volgende activiteiten gebruikte u tijdens de laatste drie maanden het internet om privéredenen?" [Kijken naar onlinevideomateriaal van diensten die videomateriaal delen (bv. YouTube)], in French: "Au cours de ces trois derniers mois, parmi les activités suivantes sur l’Internet, lesquelles avez-vous effectuées à des fins privées?"
