This year, more viewers will turn to streaming services than try to watch on traditional pay-TV services like cable or satellite. That’s according to InterDigital, Inc. and Parks Associates, which has released a new survey regarding the habits of sports fans and their viewing preferences.
The “Streaming Live Sports: Where Opportunity Meets Complexity” survey from Parks Associates and InterDigital takes a deep dive into the habits of consumers and the way they consume live sports content.
Streamers will keep working on the way they distribute live sports to viewers, trying to iron out issues and increase their audience as much as possible. There will still be persistent issues, but the data from Parks and InterDigital shows that viewers are continuing to shift away from pay TV and toward streamers as their primary source of video viewership.
