Over The Top: Big, Diverse Disruptive Force

September 25, 2014

But also, Parks Associates also reports this week that 46% of all broadband households also have a game console connected to the Internet and 28% use it as their primary connected device. And of those--and I do recognize the steps are going down with every qualitifier but still-- about 75% of them use their gaming console to access non-gaming stuff.

Parks also says 55% of all broadband consumers subscribe to an OTT video service, so the movement away from conventional content delivery has become significant enough that those OTT users represent a kind of consumer protest that is getting fast attention on Main Street.

From the article "Over The Top: Big, Diverse Disruptive Force" by P.J. Bednarski.
