On a generational basis, it's the famous millennials who watch the most at 12 hours, 6 minutes, followed by the younger Gen Z (11 hours 33 minutes) and the older Gen X (11 hours 20 minutes).
The nationally representative survey of 1,002 adults was carried out by Censuswide on behalf of Pure Telecom in October 2021.
The findings from Pure Telecom, the high-speed broadband and telecoms provider, also show Irish adults are spending €967 million per annum on their chosen streaming and online TV services annually.
It found that the average Irish adult spends €22.57 on streaming and online TV services per month, while there is a high level of switching providers.
Of those who pay for streaming and online TV services, some 38% said they have cancelled an account in the last 12 months, while 13% are planning on cancelling.
Of those who have already cancelled, more than half (56%) did so to cut costs, while 26% said they simply didn’t want the service anymore. The same percentage said they cancelled because the trial period ended.
