Only 7% of US homes rely on over-the-air TV

Just 7% of US TV households rely solely on an antenna for their television programming, according to a new report by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). 

The study found that 83% of TV households receive their programming through traditional pay-TV services – cable, satellite or fiber to the home. However, this marks a drop of five percentage points since 2010.

The CEA said that the use of non-TV consumer electronics devices, such as laptops, desktops, tablets and smartphones, in the home to consume content is “likely affecting pay-TV subscriptions.”http://www.digitaltveurope.net/84182/only-7-of-us-homes-rely-on-over-the-air-tv/
