On top of the previously reported loss of 10% pay tv revenues from 2015 to 2018, 2019 brought another 4% drop vs 2018.
Ad-supported streaming is growing.
And Disney and HBO MAX have yet to hit.
The big change is accelerating.

Cable and telcos pretty much have monopolies on internet, though.
Been a cord cutter since 2008 (antenna + Netflix DVD & streaming + occasional DVD purchase). I've dropped the discs by mail. Recently signed up for cable TV again because funnily enough, I received a TV+internet package promo offer that was cheaper than the internet-only service I previously had.
Calling customer service and threatening to cancel internet service so they'll offer another 12-month promo pricing doesn't really work when they know they're practically the only game in town.
