Netflix now boasts that 30 percent of its streaming content now has subtitles, and that the figure will be nearer 80% by the end of the year.

Unfortunately online video as a whole is still inaccessible to many hearing-impaired people. Which is a situation that really needs dealing with.

Online Video Accessibility

For those who are hearing-impaired, online video isn’t yet such a viable alternative to traditional broadcast television, mainly because the majority of online video doesn’t come with subtitles and is therefore completely closed to any hearing-impaired person who isn’t brilliant at lip reading.

This is something that few of us who don’t have problems hearing even consider. In the same way that most of us don’t consider the inaccessibility of the Web to anyone with a disability.

Luckily there are efforts and campaigns to increase the accessibility of the Web and online video. And Netflix is finally righting a situation it has been in, and failed to improve, since it launched its ‘Watch Instantly’ streaming service.

Many of you out there love watching live sports, in fact it’s the highlight of the week for many people. It’s also the main reason many can’t bring themselves to cut the cord, with cable owning the rights to most live sports. But maybe YouTube can change that. In time.

Live On YouTube

YouTube has been testing the waters with live video broadcasting over the past few years. 2009 saw U2’s Pasadena Rose Bowl concert broadcast live on YouTube worldwide. 2010 saw this extended to a five-concert series featuring artists such as Arcade Fire and John Legend.

Gigs are one thing, but sports are quite another. In 2010 YouTube broadcast all 60 matches in the 45-day Indian Premier League cricket tournament. These were available to watch in every country outside the U.S., which has little interest in cricket anyway.

There was speculation at the time that this move suggested YouTube had ambitions in the live streaming sector. And that speculation has now been renewed.
