Market Snapshot: OTT Video Viewership: The Role of Mobile

Parks Associates recently released a Market Snapshot which investigates the changing role of mobile among consumers, as well as its importance among different demographics, particularly Generation Z. In the past decade, consumer viewing habits have shifted radically. Video viewership on mobile devices has greatly increased, with hours viewed on these devices growing 545% in just ten years (from an hour a week to seven hours a week). Mobile viewing on a smartphone or tablet now accounts for over 40% of all video consumption hours among Gen Z heads of US broadband households, compared to 20% among all heads of US broadband households.
