Parks Associates' latest European consumer research also reveals 54% of Spanish and 38% of U.K. and German broadband households connect a PC to the TV.
"European consumers continue to seek ways to watch online content on TV," said , Director, Research, Parks Associates. "Google's Chromecast has recently launched in several European markets, and the use of PC-to-TV connections is far higher in Europe than in the U.S. Unfortunately, this approach has produced a fragmented user experience. Players in the video market, including pay-TV providers, have a real opportunity to differentiate themselves via a compelling, easy-to-use, unified user experience for consumers."
