About 14 percent of mobile device owners watched television on them in the past six months, according to a new survey by researcher Parks Associates. As might be expected, younger mobile users were more open to doing so than older consumers.

Of those who had used apps for TV in the past six months, more than 60 percent said they watched less than three times a month. Nine percent accessed them daily or almost daily.
