Much like mobile music, limited mobile data plans are impacting mobile video behaviors. Streaming video on a smartphone has continuously risen year over year in both the US and Western Europe and continues to rise. While streaming of video is preferred to provide instant gratification, Wi-Fi streaming is the most common way to preserve mobile data.
