Research: TV Everywhere will be (nearly) everywhere by mid-2011

Research from Parks Associates shows that by the middle of this year, some 81 percent of U.S. and Canadian pay-TV customers will have access to TV Everywhere services through their current providers.

"Service providers realize they need to be the consumer's primary source of video content on all platforms," said Senior Analyst at Parks Associates Brett Sappington. "In North America and Western Europe, TV Everywhere has moved rapidly from a handful of offerings to widespread availability. Today, operators from all sectors, telco, cable, and satellite, now offer online access to VOD or live TV, with several adding support for smartphones and tablets."
