Which of the following is true about convergence in media distribution?

• A. Convergence led to the embrace of internet-based distributions such as streaming services
• B. Convergence led to a return to print-only distribution
• C. Convergence eliminated streaming platforms
• D. Convergence decreased digital presence

Answer: (A)

Convergence in media distribution describes how content moves across multiple platforms and devices, blending traditional outlets with digital channels. The best choice captures that shift, showing that audiences increasingly access content through internet-based distributions like streaming services, which allow on-demand viewing across phones, tablets, TVs, and computers and tie in with social media and data-driven personalization. The other statements clash with this trend: there isn’t a move back to print-only distribution as digital options expand; streaming platforms haven’t disappeared, they’ve become central; and digital presence hasn’t decreased, it has grown significantly as audiences expect content across many screens and platforms.
