Among young people, only contents are consumed in Basque in ETB and in the Primeran platform

Ikusiker has questioned about 2,800 students from the UPV/EHU and the UPNA. Almost half of these students never consume television in Basque.

There are more and more Basque content on digital platforms, but there are still differences with other languages. In September 2023, a platform was created that will give importance to the contents in Basque: Great. But according to Ikusiker's report, this platform in Basque is consumed very little. The study reveals that although young people consume more content on digital platforms, only 1% of young people see them in Euskera.

Most students who have participated in the study consume television and digital platforms in Spanish. A quarter of this sample consumes audiovisual media in English on platforms. However, English loses strength on television and Euskera has more weight in this medium among students who have responded to the questionnaires. Those who have Euskera as the first language also see much more content in Spanish and English.
