Monday, May 23, 2016

Recent Parks Associates research indicates the crossover between pay TV and OTT is more prevalent among sports service subscribers than other OTT users. In most cases, the highest proportions of consumers indicate signing up for their sports services through a TV service provider, with 63% of NFL Game Pass users signing up through their pay-TV provider.
