Declining Viewership and Cancellations: Streaming Services

US customers are canceling their streaming services in record numbers, with a cancellation rate of 5.7% in October, the highest on record. The biggest jumps in cancellations occurred with stars, Paramount Plus, and Discovery. This trend may be due to a lack of compelling new content, as the ongoing strike has impacted the output of new shows. Netflix remains the dominant player in the streaming market, with high customer loyalty and minimal cancellations.
