Cable Forum - View Single Post - VOD Do you use more than one streaming service?

I have specified four, which are Netflix, Amazon Prime, Roku and Chromecast, which I think is how you might define it.

However, it should be noted that Roku, for example, gives you access to lots of other streaming services such as Now TV and All4, to name but two out of a heck of a lot more.

Other platforms such as my Smart TV, and even the TIVO, give access to more than one streaming service, so your question really needs to be defined better than this to provide a consistent approach to how those responding to this vote calculate the number of streaming services they use.

My usage is:

Tivo - Netflix, BBC i-Player, ITV Hub, All4, Demand 5, Sky Movies, Virgin Movies, You Tube, BBC News.

Smart TV - Amazon Instant Video, Netflix, BBC i-Player, ITV Hub, You Tube

Roku - Now TV, All4

Chromecast - Pluto TV

Although many more streaming channels are available on these platforms, these are my viewing habits, and I feel that I now have a splendid choice of viewing. So based on that, you could say that I use 12 separate streaming services over four separate platforms.

That's about the clearest summary I can provide!
