Cablers Gain Broadband Subs; Live Video Viewing Rises for Pay-TV Operators

August 26, 2015

In related news, about 10% of broadband homes say they want to increase to even faster high-speed services in the next year, according to a study from Parks Associates. Meanwhile, about 11% of pay TV homes downgraded their pay-TV service in the last year, about even with those who upgraded.

Nonetheless, Parks also found that overall pay-TV penetration among homes with broadband has dipped from 87% in 2011 to 85% this year.

These figures seem to underscore the role that high-speed broadband services now play for cable operators and for consumers. Increasingly, broadband is becoming the must-have service, both for Internet, but also as a way to deliver video content in new ways to homes.

From the article "Cablers Gain Broadband Subs; Live Video Viewing Rises for Pay-TV Operators" by Daisy Whitney.
