These new usage patterns are based on cutting-edge technologies that require substantial investment, but which become strategic assets for the companies that control them. Since 2008, Groupe M6 has been anticipating the need for and significance of these technologies for its business and has been developing in-house expertise around its catch-up television platform M6 Replay, and from 2013, around its streaming service 6play.
