Italian term or phrase: content aggregator
I know the question is in English, not Italian!
However, it appears in the context below and I am hesitant about the meaning - content aggregators?

E’ questa la sfida più importante per gli editori, i broadcaster e in genere per tutte le content company e i content aggregator

This looks like an example of English permeation into Italian.
Explanation:
"Content aggregator" seems to fit the notion of the person responsible for the content of some editorial work, just like in the actual English usage. Perhaps an editorial staff.

It's a (to my ear) barbaric term, but a legitimate one...


Explanation:
as in this excerpt from an October 1999 business article: "The reason Yahoo isn't a part of the coalition is that, as a pure content aggregator, they are completely
connection agnostic. They don't care who provides the connection, as long as their content is accessible...."

Your sentence, in full: "This is the greatest challenge facing publishers, broadcasters, and -- in general -- all content-provider companies and content aggregators."

(Note that here "editori" means "publishers" or "publishing houses," not "editors"!)

(My book contracts with my publishers used to refer to me and my writing partner as the "content providers," until we aagitated successfully for a change to "authors"...)
