Over The Top Services Outpace Pay TV

July 19, 2015

According to a recent Parks Associates survey, reported by Joseph Palenchar, a total of 57% of U.S. broadband households subscribe to an over-the-top (OTT) video service (streaming of video content over the Internet without the involvement of a multiple-system operator.) And, 7% of broadband households, or 8.4 million, subscribe to at least one OTT video service but not to a pay TV service, the survey found.

The 7% includes consumers who discontinued pay TV service and those who never subscribed to pay TV, says the report. In other Western nations, the figure is 4% or less. Although pay TV operators are introducing their own OTT services to appeal to consumers who don’t subscribe to pay TV, “… the OTT video-services marketplace continues its rapid rate of change, impacting the video ecosystem across world markets… " said research director Brett Sappington.
