Judgment Day Is Coming For Streaming Services Not Named Netflix Or Amazon

While consolidation might seem obvious given the challenges in the market, it will likely take longer than most people think, Parks Associates analyst Eric Sorensen told IBD. That's because of a host of factors, including regulatory issues and dealing with the legacy businesses that many companies have, especially pay TV.

The U.S. streaming video market is "extremely saturated," Sorensen said. The average streaming household subscribes to 5.6 streaming services, according to Parks Associates.

Some 89% of broadband households have at least one subscription video service. And 29% of broadband households have eight or more such subscriptions, Parks says.

Parks analyst Sorensen said consumers are having to "relearn" how to be "ad tolerant."

The growth of free, ad-supported streaming television, or FAST, services shows that consumers are willing to put up with ads to save money, Sorensen says.

Some 41% of U.S. broadband households watch ad-supported video-on-demand services now. That's up from 18% in 2018, Parks says.
