Over 70% of TV viewing by young not TV or live-streaming

TV-viewing research from Parks Associates finds that live TV viewing among all video consumption has continued to decline overall among US broadband households – nearly 60 per cent of video viewed on the TV is on-demand, non-linear content. The research shows that the trend is particularly pronounced among young consumers. Just over one-quarter of TV viewing by consumers ages 18 to 34 is of live sources, including pay-TV, over-the-air channels, and live-streaming.
