Barb has released data from its Establishment Survey showing that 19.3m UK homes (67.3%) had access to a subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service in Q3 2023, an increase on the 18.8m (65.9%) that had access in Q2 2023. “The latest data from our Establishment Survey again shows how SVOD services have established themselves within the UK viewing ecosystem. Over two-thirds of homes subscribe to at least one, while most services have seen growth over the previous quarter. As with any TV service, content is a significant influence in attracting people. Our viewing data shows how new titles and library programming combine to drive time spent with these SVOD services,” Justin Sampson, Barb’s Chief Executive, said.
