일반적으로 사람들은 다양한 정보기술에 대한 그들의 사용 경험을 전제로 정보기술을 수용하는 행위를 한다. 다시 말해, 사용자는 그들의 사용 경험을 통해 정보기술을 새롭게 지각하고 이러한 사용 경험은 정보기술에 대한 지속적 이용 의도에 영향을 준다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 배경을 근간으로 OTT 서비스에 대한 사용자 경험과 지속적 이용 의도의 관계에서 이용 만족의 매개효과를 알아보고자 하는 목적에서 진행되었다. 이를 위해 남·여 대학생 195명의 설문조사 데이터가 분석에 이용되었으며, SPSS Process macro를 통해 검증하였다. 분석결과 OTT 서비스에 대한 사용자 경험인 신뢰성, 사용성, 편리성, 유희성이 지속적 이용 의도와의 관계에서 이용 만족이 완전매개하고 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 OTT 서비스의 지속적 이용을 통한 고객 유지에 있어 사용자 경험과 이용 만족의 중요성에 대해 주목할 필요가 있음을 시사한다. 총체적으로 본 연구는 OTT 서비스에 대한 소비자의 효용을 높이고 기업의 경쟁력을 높이는 차원에서 사용자 경험과 이용 만족의 중요성을 확인하였으며 또한 본 연구를 발전시킬 심도 있는 향후 연구 방향에 대해 제언하였다.
