Parks Associates has released its annual “Top 10 List of US SVOD Services,” which is based on estimated numbers of subscribers through September 2025.

“Hulu’s jump past Disney+ is a result of smart distribution strategy,” said Michael Goodman, Senior Contributing Analyst, Parks Associates. “The Charter deal gave Hulu instant access to millions of households, reinforcing how vital partnerships between broadband providers and streamers have become in defining the new entertainment bundle, and the ability to scale.”

With the top ten list, Parks Associates says that an estimated 91$% of U.S. internet-connected households use a streaming service and 46% are using free streaming services.
