A stuch by industry group DEG: The Digital Entertainment Group indicates consumers aren't sold on watching video online.
The study, titled “Online Content: New Pathways of Discovery and Use”, involved a survey of over 1,000 people, and found that most still prefer watching DVDs or TV to streaming.
Only 10% of respondents said they prefer streaming or downloading a movie, while over 70% prefer either DVD or TV.
Perhaps of more interest was the fact that nearly one quarter of those surveyed were interested in paying to stream or download movies if they could get them at the same time they're released in theaters.
