Rise of streaming services and podcasting drives revamp of Fairfax’s The Guide
Fairfax’s Monday television liftout, The Guide, has had a makeover, with editor Paul Kalina noting the evolution had to happen to reflect readers’ changing viewing and listening habits.
The revamp includes a new weekly page dedicated to “the vast and rapid-fire offerings of streaming services such as Stan, Netflix and Amazon, as well as iView, SBS On Demand and network catch-up sites”, and a new column on podcasts.
Kalina said the need for the evolution of the print edition of The Guide became clear after an extensive survey of readers of The Sydney Morning Herald.
