How long should someone quarantine in their bedroom when they’ve just flown on Thanksgiving weekend? This is the questio

Entertainment is a sprawling industry that covers a wide range of sectors. Overall, the industry’s offering could be divided into two broad categories: content and experiences. The content side of the business, regardless of format, has been shifting towards digital channels for two decades, whereas the experiences are only starting to shift from offline, out-of-home channels to virtual spaces.

He said in an interview in 2018: ‘I wanted not to have regrets. I knew for a fact that if I don’t try, I’m going to regret having never tried’. He added: ‘And I know also, if I try and fail, I’ll never regret having tried and failed. As soon as I thought about it that way, I knew I had to try.’

Although the rise of gaming and virtual experiences theoretically compete with the entertainment brands for the same finite pool of audience attention, it would be short-sighted to see them as new competitors. Instead, players in the entertainment industry need to recognize that these new virtual experiences play a crucial role in shifting consumer expectations and behaviors, preparing the mainstream audience for more immersive experiences in future metaverses. Rather than treating it as an existential threat, entertainment should be actively embracing this attention shift and working to co-opt it as a customer acquisition and engagement channel.

One bright spot may be the growth of streaming service usage, as the lack of live sports earlier this year pushed some households to turn to streaming services. But according to expert estimations, the OTT-dominant model may be a less profitable way to monetize content than the conventional pay-TV model. So there will be a need to figure out new revenue streams to supplement the profitability gap while the industry undergoes a business model shakeup. That’s where the developing metaverse comes in.

So, instead I am loving and celebrating Stephen for who he is and giving myself permission to no longer be married without judging myself negatively for it. I hope he finds and receives everything he needs to grow and expand into his full potential. I want to see him happy, and I hope that includes him finding a wonderful person to love and who loves him back the way he needs to be loved. What a beautiful thing for each of us to model to our children. It is never too late.

Stephen and I have talked at length about this entire process over the last year. We have held each other through some painful moments, we have talked about the fear, disappointment, loss, hope, and our future together as family and friends instead of spouses and I know we are going to be okay. In fact I know we will all thrive in a way we have not yet, as this new life of ours unfolds. When we live in truth, everyone around us benefits.

As a beneficiary of the stay-at-home orders, gaming saw a major pandemic boost in terms of time spent and revenues, as many turned to the virtual worlds of video games for escapism during these trying times. According to a recent report by the NPD Group, U.S. gamers average 14 hours per week playing video games this year, up from the 12 hours per week in 2018. Among them, “heavy players” spend over 15 hours per week on gaming and make up 29% of U.S. gamers, a 6% increase over 2018. The global games market will generate revenues of $159.3 billion in 2020, per Newzoo’s estimation, marking a healthy year-over-year growth of 9.3%. Naturally, the increased consumer attention on gaming helped familiarize a sizable audience segment with the aforementioned virtual events being held in protoverse environments. People hosted virtual birthday parties, weddings, and runway shows in games like Roblox and Animal Crossing: New Horizon.

Jeff Bezos’ decision paid off. Amazon grew quickly from its start. The company went public in 1997 with $16 million in revenues and 180,000 customers in more than 100 countries. Amazon is today valued at $1.7 trillion.

Besides, the rise of non-gaming virtual events also contributed to the normalization of moving conventionally offline entertainment experiences to online channels. Dua Lipa’s live virtual concert ”Studio 2054,” for example, garnered over 5 million views on its debut night, breaking the global livestream record, netting at least $60 million in ticket sales. Besides music-related content, live experiences also extend to many other vectors such as cooking, fitness, education, and even travel, forming the foundation for the “Zoom economy.”

Jeff Bezos could have sticked to his stable and successful job at Wall Street. But what has prompted him to leave his banking career behind him was that he didn’t want to live a life of regret.

Stephen and I have talked at length about this entire process over the last year.

I could tell you it is because Stephen didn’t know how to be present or have any interests, but it would be a lie. Because I know women who would be happy with what Stephen brings to the table and where he is in his own evolution. I wish I could have been me while allowing Stephen to be himself, but I was never able to do that without turning myself down.

Jeff Bezos’ genius idea about a an online store that couldn’t exist any other way was complemented by his vision in how to make such a store succeed. Amazon only kept an inventory of a couple of thousand best selling books while having access to 400,000 others from an online network of wholesale distributors. These titles would be available within a day. Amazon has also made a deal with another 20,000 publishers to have access to more than a million titles. These would take a couple of weeks to get.

With that said, it is not an easy journey, but one I am grateful to be on. I still worry on occasion that I am hurting him, even though I know this is the best thing for Stephen, myself and our children. Living my authentic truth is the best gift I can give to me and everyone I love. Each day that I do, I see the natural consequence of my choices and how it is beautifully affecting each one of us.

8pm, after hearing the first boom, my mother saved herself by running out of her windowed office and into the corridor. The reflexes she built in during the civil war saved her life. When the second, near nuclear explosion went off and blew her office to pieces, she was left untouched behind the concrete.
