Streaming Services Losing Money From Password Sharing

July 16, 2015

At least that’s what some media companies must be thinking with streaming services now taking us out of the prehistoric times of traditional cable. But with streaming comes the sharing of passwords.

According to research firm Parks Associates, Netflix, HBO and other streaming services are losing as much as $500 million this year by not putting a stop to password sharing.

The demo that uses or abuses sharing passwords the most? People ages 18 to 24.
