Streaming Video Opportunities for Operators: Consumer Survey

"Operators can leverage the fact that customers that purchase streaming video services via telecoms operators are happier."

Telecoms operators play an important and expanding role as a retail channel for streaming video services. Analysys Mason's annual Consumer survey of 19 000 consumers worldwide indicates that customers that purchase streaming services through operators have higher satisfaction and are less likely to churn than those customers that only purchase direct-to-consumer (D2C) services.

Topics analysed

• How service stacking is evolving and what this means for competition within the streaming video market

• The importance of telecoms operators as a retail channel for streaming video services

• An assesment of how video service providers benefit from bundling streaming video services with telecoms services

• A discussion of the business case for aggregating streaming video services
