Neilson’s Ratings Considerations
An important fact to keep in mind is that Neilson’s streaming ratings only cover views on TV sets; hence, the number of minutes watched on computers or mobile devices is not included. Also, the minutes measured are only in U.S. homes and only include Disney+, Amazon, Hulu, and Netflix; therefore, there is some variance to consider.
