Telco TV continues expansion in Europe, North America

摘要

The availability of telco TV services continues to expand to new countries just as availability expands within those countries as higher-bandwidth networks are built to deliver video, according to a new report from In-Stat . In many European countries, consumers even have choices among four or five broadband providers that offer telco TV service, the high-tech market research firm reports. This expansion of availability is driving much of the subscriber growth. "Subscriber growth in North America is being driven by the largest telcos-Verizon and AT&T-who are aggressively rolling out telco TV services in parts of their territories," explains Michelle Abraham, In-Stat analyst. "They are moving full speed ahead with expanding the areas they serve, with subscribers doubling in 2007."
