Key stat: Netflix will overtake Disney+ in ad revenues next year, amassing $1.03 billion versus Disney’s $911.9 million, per our forecast.

Beyond the chart:

• Disney+ will account for less viewing time in 2024 (8 minutes a day) than Netflix (32 minutes a day), per our forecasts.
• However, Disney+ has a different advantage over Netflix: It doesn’t have to build out its ad platform from scratch.
• Instead, Disney+ can rely on the ad technology that powers its linear TV business and Hulu, which should help the streaming service to continue increasing its ad revenues, according to our US CTV Time Spent vs. Ad Spending 2023 report.
