Research by KPMG reveals that the consumer of video services by streaming is increasingly demanding. He wants variety, quality, price – that is, reasons to decide between one service and another. His ideal is to find as much as he's looking for in one place, but he's still willing to subscribe to one or more platforms to meet specific preferences.

The video service by streaming captivated audiences of different age groups, genders and social strata, establishing itself as an essential tool for any advertising and mass communication strategies.

In this survey, almost half of respondents (47%) would be willing to subscribe to more than one platform, but this decision would depend mainly on price. And 78% would agree to pay something extra, on the services they subscribe to, to get extra content that meets their expectations – especially recently released movies (58%).
