New data from Parks Associates shows use of sports streamers is on the rise.
For a long time, sports leagues were leery of streaming platforms, knowing they could make more revenue by putting games on broadcast or cable TV channels as they had for decades. But new data from Parks Associates shows that customers are increasingly willing to use sports streaming services, and that will help convince leagues even further that doing business with streamers is in their long-term interest.
Parks reports that two-thirds of sports streaming service customers keep their subscriptions after seasons end. More than half of customers who cancel those subscriptions say they’re very likely to re-subscribe in the future.
Parks’s data shows conclusively that viewers are more willing than ever to follow live sports to streaming, and that they will stay with those services even if they can’t necessarily watch live games year-round.
