“Apart from the shift toward cloud-based delivery model, the increased use of editing software for personal use is one other factor that is expected to boost market growth,” says the research group. “The extensive use of social media apps and platforms has created a significant demand for digital content as many users edit their audio and video files before posting on social media platforms. Thus, the increasing use of such social media apps and the improving content generation over these platforms will fuel the adoption of audio and video editing software during the forecast period.”

Digital media consumption is also growing with the increase in the adoption of smartphones and the rising Internet speeds. What’s more, the number of OTT video streaming platforms are also expected to increase as many consumers prefer watching online content on their smartphones or tablets, the research group adds.
