Abstract
Description
Direct-to-Home Television has given over a hundred million subscribers the
triad of Choice, Content and Control. This is an industry that consists of
nearly a hundred unique platforms and spans almost an equal number of
countries around the world.
At the very least, plain vanilla DTH allows the viewer to choose
between the incumbent national television provider and analog cable operator.
At the higher end of the spectrum, High Definition (HD) Digital Video
Recorders allow the viewer to control what he watches in ways
previously thought impossible. And finally, it is the content and to a
large degree its exclusivity that drives growth across the wide variety of
audiences that "tune in" every day.
However, it would be too simplistic to consider DTH as one mammoth global
market. Language, Lifestyle, TV viewing behaviour and Regulation are just some
of the factors that make every country and every region of the world a very
unique market. Taking into account almost every DTH platform and building
Subscriber, Channel and Revenue baselines for each of the ten
regions has made it clear that the "DTH" whole is certainly not the same as
the sum of its parts. NSR, with its mirrored multi-regional presence,
captures these differences in Market Trends and Pay-TV indicators throughout
this effort.
The Global DTH Markets, 2nd Edition report builds on NSR' s history of tracking
the DTH industry since our inception. This newly crafted edition provides a
data intensive evaluation of the DTH market across the globe. Special
attention has been given to apportioning the baseline in categories
such as Basic DTH, HD, DVR and HD-DVR services. Key parameters such as
Churn, Penetration and ARPU have not only been presented for the end of 2008
but also forecasted over a ten-year period. Finally as with every effort, NSR
goes beyond the numbers to look at their impact on the industry and
marketplace, giving the reader the reasoning behind the raw data.
