Western European OTT TV and Video Market 2020-2025 - 45 Million New Subscribers Projected for 2020 Alone, Driven Primarily by the COVID-19 Lockdown

Western Europe is forecast to have 197 million SVOD subscriptions by 2025, doubling from 88 million at end-2019. About 45 million subscribers will be added in 2020 alone, with the COVID-19 lockdown providing a major boost.

Netflix will remain the largest pan-regional SVOD platform, with 67.7 million paying subscribers expected by 2025. Netflix will add 24 million subs from 2019.

Disney+ has made a strong and immediate impact, given its brand recognition, low price and impressive content line-up. Disney+ will launch in most Western European countries by mid-2020. Disney+ is forecast to have 57.54 million paying subscribers in Western Europe by 2025.

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have had two major effects on Western European OTT: a surge in SVOD subscriptions and a loss in advertiser confidence, which will result in lower AVOD growth for 2020.
