"And while video consumption in the workplace increases usage metrics among adults, the at-home data show how kids and teens are driving usage and claiming their territory. The Web provides another platform for their interest in TV shows, toys, movies and music, and offers an interactive element that children especially enjoy."

Among the top sites for the younger demographic there are publishers that are integrating video into games, music and other content to drive engagement with this multimedia generation.
