Euro OTT Growing But Eclipsed By North America

March 28, 2016

The Parks OTT Video Market Tracker shows that 55% of UK broadband households and 51% in France are watching TV programming and films online and that 30% of broadband households in the former country and 17% across the English Channel subscribe to paid-for OTT video services.

The market in the UK is being fuelled by interest in the BBC iPlayer and OTT video services from Netflix, Sky (NOW TV) and Amazon. Parks identified new services emerging in France, including a new transactional video service from well-known retailer FNAC, but noted that Netflix has struggled in the French market, despite partnerships with many of France's leading pay-TV providers.
