Top nine cable companies lost 1.195 million subscribers in 2014
“Despite a relatively saturated market, and increasing alternatives for consumers to watch video, the top pay-TV providers have only lost about 0.2 percent of all subscribers over the past two years,” said Bruce Leichtman, president and principal analyst for LRG.
LRG also found that the top nine cable companies lost 1.195 million subscribers in 2014, compared to 1.695 million in 2013. 2014 marked the fewest cable video losses since 2008. Top telco providers added 1.05 million subscribers, compared to 1.43 million in 2013. Satellite providers suffered the biggest drop, only adding 20,000 subscribers in 2014, versus 170,000 in 2013.
