Heading into the holiday season, we polled American consumers on their TV viewing habits, finding that a whopping two-thirds (68%) would wear holiday sweaters for a month rather than giving up the tube! And, more than half (53%) would rather have the in-laws stay with them for a month.
What brings most holiday cheer to TV viewers?
With so much TV devotion out there this holiday season, it’s obvious a TV-enhancement gift would be a great way to go, but what gift? Thankfully, the survey also revealed what Americans really want from their TV experience:
• 88% choose watching live TV as a top activity
• 84% opt for watching movies
• 74% select watching recorded TV
• 27% prefer streaming Internet video
An overwhelming majority (73%) said they want one box that can do all of the above.
