Parks: Cord-cutting Up

Cord-cutter consumer research from Parks Associates shows the percentage of US broadband households that use only antennas to receive TV has steadily increased since 2013 to reach 15 per cent. The firm’s report, 360 View: Entertainment Services in U.S. Broadband Households, reveals this increase coincides with a drop in pay-TV subscriptions and an increase in Internet-only video subscriptions.

“Pay-TV subscriptions have dropped each year since 2014, falling to 81 per cent of US broadband households in Q3 2016,” said Brett Sappington, Senior Director of Research, Parks Associates. “Several factors have played a part in this decline, including growth in the OTT video market, increasing costs for pay-TV services, and consumer awareness of available online alternatives.”
