New Parks Associates research cited by The Washington Post today reveals the competitive landscape among top OTT video service providers.
The IoT research firm recently released an updated Top 10 list of OTT video services, which showed the majority of OTT video consumption is now on Internet-connected TV. The list, which has Netflix maintaining the top spot ahead of Amazon Video, Hulu, MLB.TV, and WWE Network, is ranked by number of paid subscribers, excluding transactional or ad-based services and based upon reported figures and estimates from Parks Associates’ OTT Video Market Tracker.
The firm’s OTT Video Market Tracker uses multiple consumer surveys, network traffic data, and reported OTT video service provider information to determine paid subscriber numbers.
