Parks Associates: Nearly a Third of Netflix Subscribers Opt for Premium Tier

Parks Associates Senior Director of Research Brett Sappington pointed out that the services premium tier offers up to four concurrent streams and access to Ultra HD viewing, while the basic option only allows viewing on one screen and SD quality.

“Consumers value access to multiple streams, particularly for popular services, making a premium tier with multiple streams a moneymaker for OTT video services,” Sappington said in comments emailed to CED.
