It seems a pandemic isn’t the time to discover new things. Instead, we’re clinging to that which brings us comfort.
According to a recent study on entertainment choices amid the COVID-19 outbreak, the current trend in entertainment is actually an old favorite.
Nielsen found that more than half of us have rewatched episodes TV shows we’ve seen before and a whopping 87 percent of respondents are sticking with the same music we love normally.
The report also notes that 60 percent are spending more time with entertainment, and close to 8 in 10 have signed up for a new streaming service such as Netflix or Hulu.
