Netflix Has Low 'Churn' Rate Among Top OTT Services

Hulu is in 14% of all U.S. broadband subscribers, about 12.6 million subscribers. Parks says Hulu had a churn rate that equates to about half its subscribers.

Looking at all U.S. broadband subscribers, 20% of U.S. broadband households had cancelled at least one OTT video service in the past 12 months. In second quarter 2015, 18% had done so.

Parks says that 33 new OTT services entered the U.S. market in 2015 -- to total a little more than 100 OTT services overall. Only 5% of U.S. broadband households have a subscription to one or more services beyond Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu.
