On average, Americans are paying for three streaming services at a time!
About $55 per month
"It’s no secret that people can’t get enough of their streaming services. According to our data, one in three Americans believe subscription-based streaming services are a household need. On average, Americans are paying for three streaming services at a time.
But increased competition between entertainment companies and the dwindling number of cable TV subscriptions has made prices for streaming subscriptions jump up considerably in the past few years. In October, Netflix announced a $2 to $3 price hike on some of its plans, while the ad-free version of Discovery Plus went up by $2 a month. Hulu raised its standard ad-free plan from $14.99 per month to $17.99 per month.
Ouch! Considering that streamers now spend an average of $55.04 per month on their subscriptions, it’s important to be a bit more strategic about what you’re subscribing to these days to manage these pricing acrobatics."
