Comcast a Bellwether of Tough Pay TV in 2020 Amid OTT Rivalry, Analyst Says

Comcast's accelerating video subscriber losses (see 2001230008), increasing average revenue per unit being paid to video programmers and more people now subscribing to a single service than to a triple-play package in 2019 point to a more-difficult pay TV ecosphere this year, nScreenMedia analyst Colin Dixon blogged Thursday. He said the video sub losses are likely to pick up speed further due to proliferating over-the-top services, including Comcast's Peacock service.
