Pay TV Market

Market Insights:

Pay television (TV) refers to a television broadcasting service based on consumer subscriptions. The pay TV service may be received through cable TV, satellite TV, or using an internet protocol TV (IPTV). The most prominent factor fueling the pay-TV market is the consistently rising number of households worldwide, along with people’s growing discretionary income. With the continually growing technological advancement in the television sector, people now opt for high-quality devices. This is another prominent factor supporting the pay-TV industry’s growth. Additionally, a substantial rise in the number of television channels has encouraged consumers to opt for pay-TV services. As of 2016, the number of receivable channels across the world has increased by more than 40% as compared to 2008.

Another prominent factor bolstering market growth is the ongoing digital television transition across different regions. In emerging economies across the Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa (MEA), the digital switchover is yet to be fully accomplished. As a part of digitization, the majority of consumers prefer installing satellite TV because of its immense benefits. Similarly, rising internet penetration worldwide has opened new avenues for the pay-TV industry. In regions such as North America, Europe, and parts of Asia Pacific, the penetration of IPTV has witnessed profound growth over the course of time. This would further spur the pay-TV market’s growth. Nevertheless, the growing penetration of internet services has also led to an increase in related services such as over-the-top (OTT) content. This poses a significant threat to the overall pay-TV industry.
