Eurobites: BT Lands EU Cloud Deal

The UK has got a taste for OTT video services -- but it prefers the flavor of the free stuff. That is one of the conclusions of a report into the European OTT market by Parks Associates , which found that BBC's iPlayer, ITV Player, 4oD (now All4), and Demand5 -- all free catch-up or on-demand offerings from broadcasters -- are the most popular services. As far as paid OTT services go, Netflix has a clear lead over its rivals, with a near 20% share of the UK's broadband households subscribing to its product.

From the article "Eurobites: BT Lands EU Cloud Deal" by Paul Rainford.
