Media marathoning (web site for book Media marathoning), viewed Jan. 8, 2015: ("The popular press is abuzz with accounts of "binge-watching," a verb that made the Oxford Dictionary's short-list for 2013 word of the year. This book analyzes readers' and viewers' sustained and immersive forays into story worlds, but rejects the negatively-connoted phrase "binge-watch" in favor of "media marathoning.")
Oxford dictionaries, Oct. 22, 2014 (Binge watching: noun; the practice of watching multiple episodes of a television program in rapid succession, typically by means of DVDs or digital streaming)
