Posted on: Tuesday, 23 October 2007, 12:01 CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c72310) has announced the addition of "Canada - Convergence - Triple Play & Digital TV" to their offering.
Canadian TV and video markets are experiencing significant changes, characterised by convergence with digital media, broadband and telecommunications services. Media convergence gained pace in 2005 and 2006 with increasing merging of video, data and voice applications, in particular digital TV, broadband and VoIP services. Cable TV operators and telcos, and to a lesser extent satellite companies, are increasingly competing for the triple play consumer. The slow but steady transition from analogue to digital TV is increasing the use of new products and services such as VoD and High Definition services. Increasing broadband penetration continues to drive the triple play market, with well over half of all Canadian households subscribing to broadband in 2007. Broadband penetration is also seeing the emergence of IPTV and is driving the migration from traditional circuit-switched telephone lines to VoIP telephony, with VoIP subscriber numbers growing rapidly during 2006. This report provides analysis and statistics of the Canadian digital TV industry in the context of this emerging triple play market.
