In emerging markets, free-to-air operators often take the lead, relying heavily on advertising revenue rather than on the subscription revenue streams that are so lucrative in many developed markets. Low incomes make high prices for pay-TV unaffordable for most in developing markets, and free or inexpensive alternatives such as pirated content deters adoption even further. As a result, only 20% of pay-TV revenue worldwide comes from emerging markets even though nearly two-thirds of the world' s pay-TV subscriptions are there. Monthly subscription fees averaging less than $7, limited network capabilities and a lack of engaging content across emerging markets are the main reasons for the limited revenue opportunity to date. en Internet Security 2009-10-07 IDC http://www.the-infoshop.com/study/id102454-enterprise-security.html This IDC study provides the results from a recent end-user survey on organizations' future security software deployment plans, given the current economic situation in Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ. en BPO 2009-10-07 IDC http://www.the-infoshop.com/study/id102462-outsourcing-services.html The Finnish outsourcing market performed very well during 2008 and increased 8.9%. en Asia Telecom 2009-10-07 IDC http://www.the-infoshop.com/study/id102526-ict-market.html This IDC study focuses on the resources sector in Australia, providing a map of where short- and longer-term opportunities can be found, highlighting purchasing patterns for products and services by market. en Optical Network 2009-10-06 Pioneer Consulting http://www.the-infoshop.com/study/pc94772-world-cableship.html Pioneer Consulting provides a broad view of the Deep Water Cableship market in this first of two reports covering marine services for undersea telecom cables.
