According to Parks Associates Q3 2023 data, 62% of US internet households subscribed to some form of pay-TV service, defined as a paid subscription for a bundle of live channels. 21% of households have dropped legacy pay-TV completely and only stream their pay-TV services, and just 18% report only accessing legacy pay-TV via a set-top box. A growing percentage (24%), access their pay-TV services through both means.
According to Parks Associates Q1 2024 research, Spectrum TV services are in 23% of internet homes while Optimum has hovered around 4%.
Additionally, bundles help prevent churn of the subscriber completely departing. Parks Associates anticipates we will continue to see the reemergence of a new kind bundle as a way for pay-TV providers to reengage and entice lost customers.
