3 in 4 TV households in the US now have a DVR, subscribe to Netflix, or use video-on-demand (VOD) services from a cable or telco provider.

Twitter users are more likely than non-users to watch various types of video content during a typical week.

While the laptop computer is the most common device used by US streaming households, streamers are also using game consoles, Blu-ray or DVD players, Roku boxes, and smart TVs.

One-quarter of respondents to Nielsen’s Q4 2013 survey claimed to be aware of more programs as a result of social media, up from 18% during the year-earlier period.
