Tivo Partners with Quantcast for Statistical Information

It has been reported this morning that Tivo and Quantcast have partnered. This is a very interesting partnership that is aimed to help Tivo sell more advertising on their service. Tivo will combine real time stats on TV viewing along with the users activity on the web which provides advertisers with a much rounded and needed statistics package.  This will also prove or rather help publishers get an idea what amount of the audience sticks to the traditional TV viewership and how much of it has been taken away by the online streaming video.

This is a great step forward for Quantcast who seem to be receiving a lot more praise and partners of late. I’m seeing Quantcast gaining a lot more quantified publishers on the net and it is great to see more sites actually being open about their stats and audience.
