IMS Research Study Finds Russian IPTV Market has Reached 374k Subs

AUSTIN, TX — Preliminary results from the IMS Research study ‘IPTV: A Global Market Analysis – 2011 Edition’, reveal that the IPTV subscriber base in the emerging BRIC markets exceeds 8 million subscribers for 2010, with China dominating the figure. A CAGR of 13% for BRIC is expected through the forecast period, which ends in 2015.

John Kendall, IMS Research Market Analyst and author of the study states, “Infrastructure and broadband penetration are the big hurdles to IPTV adoption in emerging markets. A good example is a country like Russia, with low broadband penetration and a highly segmented market, where IPTV growth has been rapid but still accounting for less than 1% of all TV households, remaining at 374,000 subscribers. It will continue growing at a steady pace.” Over the forecast period, IMS Research forecasts that Russian IPTV subscribers will experience continued growth, but still remain under the million subscriber milestone. Kendall continues, “Most of the IPTV uptake will naturally remain around densely populated urban centers, where existing infrastructure can handle the bandwidth necessary for IPTV, and new build-outs will be focused.”

The analysis in this new study indicates similar restrictions to IPTV growth in other emerging market areas, including Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. The Fourth Edition IPTV report includes comprehensive analysis for 68 countries and profiles more than 200 operators. The report also includes a bandwidth forecast, which focuses on the amount of bandwidth utilized by IPTV households, signal delivery methods (xDSL, FTTH, & DOCSIS), set-top box shipments and revenues, and an examination of the IPTV Hospitality market. The report is set for publication January 31, 2011.

Obama: Mobile Broadband for 98% of Americans

President Barack Obama pledged to expand access to mobile broadband services to nearly all U.S. residents during his State of the Union address Tuesday evening.

"Within the next five years, we'll make it possible for businesses to deploy the next generation of high-speed wireless coverage to 98 percent of all Americans," he said. "This isn't about faster Internet or fewer dropped calls. It's about connecting every part of America to the digital age."

The President said access to high-speed wireless Internet services could help rural farmers and small business owners better sell their products; help first responders cope with emergency situations; and improve education and healthcare. The pledge was part of his larger initiative to invest in the nation's infrastructure.

In a statement, Sprint government affairs executive Vonya McCann said the company "commends President Obama for his leadership in promoting nationwide access to advanced wireless services and working to ensure that our nation's first responders get what they have long needed and deserved, wireless interoperable public safety broadband services."

Yesterday, the FCC moved to lay the groundwork for interoperability of national mobile broadband networks and Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) reintroduced a bill that would pay to build and maintain a nationwide mobile broadband network for first responders. By Maisie RamsayWednesday, January 26, 2011
