Netflix gets way more viewing time than rivals

I'm not surprised by this: A ComScore report has revealed that Netflix gets more viewing time in the US than rivals Amazon, Hulu and YouTube combined.

When it said Netflix is the standard choice in 54% of homes, does that mean Netflix is now more popular than cable?

Over-the-top content (OTT) is a term used in broadcasting and technology business reporting to refer to audio, video, and other media transmitted via the Internet as a standalone product, that is, without an operator of multiple cable or direct-broadcast satellite television systems (so-called multiple-system operators) controlling or distributing the content.

From:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over-the-top_content


I guess Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Video, ETC... are all OTT.
