Pay-TV providers missing the middle market for gaming

“Pay-TV providers are leaving money on the table,” said John Barrett, Director of Research at Parks Associates. “The industry’s attention is split between free gaming and more expensive, advanced features. Between the two extremes is an opportunity that has not been fully exploited.”
