A new report from Parks Associates indicates that bilingual Spanish-language broadband households in the U.S. are more likely to have pay TV and OTT video service subscriptions than the average U.S. broadband household. In the survey of U.S. broadband households where Spanish is spoken daily, Parks reports that 89 percent of these households have a pay TV subscription and more than 75 percent subscribe to at least one OTT video services. Among average U.S. broadband households, 84 percent reportedly subscribe to pay TV, and roughly two-thirds subscribe to an OTT service.
