Parks: U.S. Tops in Cord-Cutting — Except for Spain

Parks said Spain actually exceeds the U.S. in percentage of cord-cutters and broadband households that watch online video, but in the other countries — the U.K., France and Germany — the incidence of cord cutting is far lower than in the U.S.

“The percentage of consumers in the U.K., Germany and France canceling pay-TV services and instead using online video is half the rate seen in the U.S. market,” Brett Sappington, director of research at Parks Associates, said in a statement.
