Just One OTT Sub Becoming Two For Consumers, Research Says

Research from Parks Associates says 31% of broadband households in this country now have multiple OTT subscriptions and that means almost half of households with at least one pay OTT service actually have two or more.

But probably two.
Brett Sappington, senior director of research calls this “the service-stacking phenomenon” which Parks, logically, thinks will propel the OTT market. Well, of course. This report, part of a larger stack of scholarship Parks is presenting today at CES, points out that the most popular stack is the Netflix and Amazon Prime combo--12% of broadband users have that.
