81% of US households have a DVR, get Netflix, or use on-Demand (VOD) from a cable or telco provider, according to Leichtman Research Group.
30% of households are using two of the services, and 13% using all three.
The survey also found that 57% of households get a subscription video on-Demand (SVOD) service from Netflix, Amazon Prime, and/or Hulu. Overall, 48% of adults stream any of these services on a monthly basis.
These findings are based on a survey of 1,214 households throughout the US, and are part of LRG’s study, On-Demand TV XIV. This is LRG’s fourteenth annual study on this topic.
“In 2005, 25% of cable subscribers had ever used VOD, 8% of all households had a DVR, and about 4% of households subscribed to Netflix’s DVD-by-mail movie delivery service. These services have significantly evolved over the past decade,” said Bruce Leichtman, president and principal analyst for Leichtman Research Group.
“Today, over 80% of households get at least one of these services, and in recent years Netflix and other streaming SVOD offerings have expanded the use and popularity of on-Demand TV.”
