During a survey conducted in the six largest countries in Latin America in September 2021, internet users were asked to choose up to three activities they intended to do after the restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic were lifted, replacing the time they spent watching subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) content and/or cable TV. Brazil had the highest share of respondents willing to go to the movies (43 percent), go out to eat, drink, and/or meet friends (46 percent), and keep the time spent with SVOD and pay TV regardless of resuming outdoor activities (40 percent). Brazil also had the lowest shares of interviewees willing to read books (18 percent) and use dating apps (eight percent). Early access to movie releases and new seasons of popular series were among the top reasons to subscribe to OTT and/or pay TV in Latin America in 2021.
