MLB, WWE Network shift into high gear in SVOD rankings

Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX), Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Hulu may be well-entrenched as the top three subscription video on demand services in the U.S., but the scrum for higher ranking amid the top-ten services is continuing, with MLB.TV and WWE Network holding the fourth and fifth spots, according to a new report from Parks Associates.

NFL Game Pass also made the top-ten list, coming in behind HBO Now and Crunchyroll at number eight. The Blaze and Sling TV rounded out the list in the number nine and ten spots, respectively.

Parks ranked the services based on subscriber volume, estimated from service provider information, consumer surveys and network traffic data.
