Abstract
A system and method for providing crowd sourced metrics for broadcast content providers. For determinations of such metrics, user consumption of broadcast content in multiple streams by multiple content providers may be monitored and user consumption information regarding the broadcast content may be obtained. One or more content consumption metrics may be determined to quantify individual user consumption of the broadcast content. Audience metrics may be determined, for a content provider, to inform about users that are available to consume broadcast content provided by the content provider. Events within the broadcast content may be determined and event information regarding individual user consumption of the broadcast content at the event may be obtained. Event metrics may be determined based on the obtained event information to inform about consumption of the broadcast content at the event by users.
