Pluto TV once again leads our list for the most popular free streaming service. Right behind it is Tubi and The Roku Channel rounding out the top three, which seem to be pulling away from the other free streaming services.

- The Roku Channel 18%
- Freevee 5%
- Local Now 1%
- Redbox 1%

According to our readers, the user interface and exclusive content are among the reasons why many of our readers picked these services.
