VALLEY COTTAGE, New York, October 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
The global Video on Demand (VOD) market is expected to reach US$ 263 billion by 2016, up from US$ 207 billion in 2014. Rising popularity of on-demand services among consumers and proliferation of internet in emerging nations is expected to fuel the global VOD market. Demand for Pay TV services will continue to remain strong during the forecast period 2014-2020.
Popularity of Pay TV services, especially digital cable services, is increasing on account of deployment of 4K Ultra HD technology. Pay TV service providers are focusing on clubbing several advanced technologies, such as ITV and DVBS-2 based MPEG-4 video format with HD DTH. Integration of these technologies has given consumers a broad array of options to choose from, increasing the Pay TV subscriber base.
North America and Western Europe are the two largest markets in the global VOD market. Asia Pacific, which currently has a 13% share in the global VOD market, is expected to represent over 22% market by 2020. FMI expects Asia Pacific to surpass Western Europe as the second-largest VOD market by 2020.
