A few days ago we posted a survey on the subreddit CordCutters asking people to fill out a short 10 question survey about being a cord cutter. Over a thousand different people filled out the survey. Clearly the subreddit is growing quickly as our Spring survey only had about a 100 people and our summer survey had just under 500 people respond. Thank you to everyone who took the few minutes to complete this survey.
Question #1
This question is almost unchanged from the summer. Over the summer 88.32% of respondents said cost was the reason and now 88.09% said cost.
Question #2
Question #3
More of us seam to be watching less streamed content. Last summer 33.48% watched 3 or less hours. Now 48.98% say they watch less than 2 hours of streamed content each day. At first I thought maybe more people are using Torrents but that number is almost unchanged form the summer.
Question #4
Question #5
Question #6
Question #7
The top services mentioned in the comments are YouTube, WatchESPN, and HBOGO. Over all there was no real change where people got their content from.
Question #8
There was a slight change in how much people pay for their content. Over the summer 47.87% of respondents paid $11 or more a month. Now 65.78% of respondents pay $11 or more a month.
Question #9
Question #10
Thank you to everyone who filled out this survey. Over a 1,000 responses in less than 10 hours! For the winter survey we will be using a new survey system to make sure there is no issues with overage fees so everyone who wanted to can compete the survey. Honestly I am still shocked that we received so many responses as just a few months ago we didn’t get 500 reposes over several days.
