The “OTT Video Market Tracker” from Parks Associates was just released indicating adoption in broadband households of OTT video subscriptions has increased by 12 percent since Q3 2014. Both the number of available services and consumer awareness are increasing, according to the research — as is password sharing which is said to have gone up by about 8 percent over that same period.
There’s been a steady climb in OTT thus far in 2016, Brett Sappington, senior director of research at Parks, observes. “With Hulu’s shift to a subscription-only approach, OTT video subscription penetration in the U.S. market will continue to rise through the end of this year,” he adds.
