This MIDiA update showcases the monumental shift in the video landscape with signups for subscription video on demand (SVOD) services overtaking pay-TV subscriptions for the very first time in 2018.

Households with pay-TV subscriptions decreased five points from in 2017, to in 2018. Conversely, the number of households with monthly video subscriptions (i.e. Netflix, Amazon Prime Video) increased over the same period from to year-on-year.
