The revenue generated by the traditional pay-TV market in emerging Asia–Pacific (EMAP) will peak at USD29.5 billion in 2022, and will then gradually decline for the rest of the decade. This forecast report analyses the relative strengths of IPTV, cable, satellite and OTT video as they compete for a share of consumer spending in the region.

This report provides:

  • forecasts for the number of pay-TV households and services, the number of premium OTT video users, their retail revenue (spend) and average spend per user (ASPU)
  • forecasts split by pay-TV platform: cable (analogue and digital), IPTV, pay DTT, satellite (DTH) and operator OTT; operator OTT and third-party OTT are split by category of OTT video service – linear channels, linear events, TVoD (rental), TVoD (ownership) and SVoD
  • forecasts for eight individual countries and the EMAP region as a whole.
