Abstract

The COVID-19 has led to an economic downturn around the globe and affected all facets of our lives, including consumers’ preferences and their consumption behaviours. This literature review examined how the pandemic affected consumer behaviour in different segments of the entertainment industry worldwide. This paper focuses on how behavioural economics is applied to people’s consumption behaviour and how the entertainment industry reacts to the shift in consumer preference, such as interventions that contribute to the shift in consumer preference towards digital entertainment. It showed that the main driving force for inclining towards digital entertainment is a lack of physiological needs satisfaction, especially during the period of lockdown. Whereas in the post-COVID period, these newly adopted behaviours would not substitute for their old habits. This paper also aims to explore whether the new consumer behaviour is permanent or transient, as well as develop appropriate intervention strategies for attracting new consumers and customer retention in post-COVID time.
