US: 55% Of OTT Services Subscription-Only

Findings from the Parks Associates’ OTT Video Market Tracker indicate that 55 per cent of OTT services in the US have a subscription-only business model, such as Netflix or Hulu. In Canada, 50 per cent of OTT services offer subscription-only services.

“There is an enormous amount of change going on in the OTT space right now, with new OTT video services entering the market each month. Many of these services have subscription as at least part of their business model,” said Brett Sappington, Senior Director of Research, Parks Associates. “The recent ruling of the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit is not likely to affect OTT video service business models. An OTT video service is unlikely to pursue legal action against someone who pays less than $10 per month unless they are doing something that disrupts the service.”
