hmm.

 

i'm surprised 56% is still linear tv.

 

not sure what 'other' is

[QueenBeyoncé]

Good. Cable is too damn high anyway 

[Espresso]

From the article: Important to note this Nielsen data does NOT include mobile or desktop viewing which would likely boost streaming further  

[Dula Peep]

So... still more people watch TV than streaming ? wow....

[Adamj.dion]

[Gottasadae]

Cable is very expensive and such a waste oа money but they still milking older generation of ppl that not familiar with streaming 

[MardinBeksloy]

It will continue to rise as new generations continue to stream

[JonginBey]

Honestly thought cable stopped kicking years ago.

I mean, yeah, you can easily get live television with Philo, YouTube TV or even Fubo and you can cancel at any time. The older generations won't adapt to streaming so it is what it is, unfortunately.

Honestly, with all of these streaming services out, the prices combined are becoming worse or at least equal to what cable used to be, which is the whole reason people ditched it in the first place, but are now paying nearly as much as they were when they had cable
