33% Of UK Broadband Homes Also Subscribe To OTT, Hulu And Sony Sign Streaming Deal, And Is It Too Soon To Talk 8k? : January 12th 2016

“Overall OTT video usage in the UK favours broadcasters,” said Brett Sappington, Director, Research, Parks Associates. “The most popular OTT video sources in the UK include BBC’s iPlayer, ITV Player, 4oD (now All4), and Demand5 — all catch-up or on-demand offerings from broadcasters. New OTT video market entrants, especially those with paid services, will have to provide unique value in order to make substantial gains. However, the demand for interesting content is strong enough that there are market opportunities for new OTT video players. Nearly 20 per cent of UK broadband households have recently used a Netflix service, despite the free OTT catch-up options.”
