Eras Tour Hits Nielsen Streaming Chart at No. 8, The Gentlemen Tops Originals
Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour debuted at No. 8 on Nielsen’s overall U.S. streaming ranking for the week of March 11, amassing 677 million minutes viewed for the 169-minute concert film on Disney+.
By Disney+’s own methodology, that translates to more than four million “views,” though you gotta figure there were some viewing parties at play in those first four days, and thus unaccounted-for eyeballs.

Nielsen notes that Eras Tour streaming was driven by an audience that was 70% female and well-distributed across age ranges, though the 18-34 demo had the highest concentration of viewing (with 26%).
