New numbers from Parks Associates Research Group show that not only is streaming on the rise, but one streaming service isn’t enough for many homes.
Among US homes that have broadband, over 30% subscribe to multiple streaming services, while well over half (63%) have at least one subscription.
The most popular combination pairing is Netflix with Amazon Video, with 12% of homes having that combination. No real surprise there, as Netflix is by far the leading streaming service, and many people subscribe to Amazon Prime for the other benefits as well.
More research from Parks showed that the average amount that a home spends on streaming subscriptions is $7.95 a month, not coincidentally the price of the lowest tier of Netflix or Hulu.
