As Over-The-Top Viewing Grows, Those Users Spend More On Video

January 08, 2014

More and more consumers are viewing video via over-the-top services, according to just-released research from Parks Associates. About 50% of U.S. broadband homes use subscription or transactional over-the-top video, the research firm said when it released its newest data at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week.
Parks also learned that those over-the-top homes spend more on video in general than other homes – about $67 per month on video, versus $40 on average for all U.S broadband homes. (That figure does not include pay-TV services, though most over-the-top users have pay-TV service).

Services that integrate both transactional and subscription over-the-top video are tapping into this consumer mindset, Parks added. Amazon Prime, for instance, offers a subscription service as well as videos for purchase. About two-thirds of Amazon Prime Instant Video subscribers also use Amazon transactional service, and the amount they spend on rented and purchased videos is rising, Parks said.
