Sixteen percent of U.S. broadband households admit to either using someone else’s credentials to stream cable TV or sharing their login info with someone outside their home, according to Parks Associates.

That lost revenue is especially important because the pay-TV industry is already losing subscribers to cheaper online rivals like Netflix.
