Is It Time To Bank On Mobile?

The survey by Parks Associates found that 70% of U.S. smartphone users watch at least one short streaming video clip daily. More than 20% of users send more than 30 minutes each day watching short-form content, such as YouTube clips and music videos. Another 40% watch longer-form videos at least once a day, and the majority of them spend an average of 30 minutes doing so.
