"Over 40% of TV households in the U.S. subscribe to OTT services," said Damian Scavo, Axwave CEO. "The data that we have been collecting indicates that viewers are using these OTT services significantly more than the TV industry has forecasted."
The Axwave data allows the TV ecosystem understand how much time viewers are spending on OTT compared with standard linear TV. For example, in the U.S., of the total time spent watching content on a television, 29.3% is using OTT services.
In addition, the data highlights the most popular OTT shows in the U.S. and Europe. This can be everything from OTT original programming, such as Netflix's "House of Cards: and and Amazon's "Alpha House" to TV series and movie content acquired from more traditional media companies. Currently, original programming is 2.5% of all the OTT TV series viewed.
