Majority of U.S. Broadband Households Use Up to One OTT

October 18, 2015

NEW YORK: Up to 58 percent of broadband households in the U.S. use at least one OTT video service on a monthly basis, according to new Parks Associates findings.

The research firm also found that more than 25 percent of households use two or more services.

“Despite impressive penetration, growth of U.S. OTT services has slowed recently, indicating the overall market for SVOD service might be saturated,” said Glenn Hower, research analyst for Parks Associates. “Netflix continues to dominate the OTT space, with 43 percent of U.S. broadband households subscribing to its service. After Hulu and Amazon, with 19 percent and 17 percent, respectively, penetration of OTT services drops drastically. However, with new niche services emerging that focus on targeted content and audiences, there is still room for growth in the space.”
