This younger group also showed a strong interest in security cameras and cybersecurity as potential services they would subscribe to if offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6.jpeg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"595\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6-1024x595.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22697\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6-1024x595.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6-300x174.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6-768x446.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_6.jpeg 1217w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Streaming Service Explosion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without an independent platform to aggregate all of the streaming services, consumers face a substantial challenge in picking and paying for them.  Data from the 2019 Rural Subscriber study validates the exponential increase of streaming services. Back then there were only three services that measured at least 4% of the market share, today there are 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_8-1024x523.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_8-1024x523.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_8-300x153.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_8-768x392.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/VS_8-25_8.jpeg 1077w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although conventional wisdom suggests that video consumption will continue to gravitate towards streaming, there are signs of emerging issues. Consumers are looking at a smorgasbord of streaming options, which will ultimately dominate their monthly credit card statements. A local live streaming cable service <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovsys.com\/innovsys\/innostream\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">offering advanced time-shifted viewing and DVR capabilities<\/a> could become an appealing choice at a reasonable price, all consolidated into one bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div class=\"container-gutter-md
