Three in ten US households unsubscribe from streaming platforms to save money

According to Parks Associates' "Video Services: Shifting Demand" report , 29% of internet-using households decided to unsubscribe from a streaming service to save money. The annual churn rate of streaming platforms is 47%, the study said.
