Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu Rule: 59% in U.S. Have a Subscription

Among U.S. broadband-enabled homes, 59 percent have a subscription to Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu. While it's no surprise that those are the most popular streaming video options, research from Parks Associates shows just how dominant they are: Only 6 percent of U.S. broadband homes subscribe to a different over-the-top (OTT) service without also subscripting to one or more of the top 3.

This data comes from Parks Associates' OTT Video Tracker service, which finds OTT adoption is slowing. As a result the growth area for OTT is in multi-service households, not new households. Currently, one-third of broadband homes subscribe to multiple services. Among niche video services, Parks sees Crunchyroll and WWE Network as developing dedicated followings: Crunchyroll counted over 1 million subscribers globally in February, while WWE Network reported 1.95 million global subs in April.
