Survey: Internet-Only TV Households Reach 17%

In related news, Parks Associates recently reported that the rate of cancellations for internet (a.k.a. OTT) video services among U.S. broadband households has held steady over the past three years at approximately 18%.

Parks pegs the average subscription length at 30 months overall and says “OTT service penetration” is starting to plateau at around 65% among U.S. broadband households. The three top streaming services — Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu — are the most stable in terms of “churn rates.”
