DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/df7qbz/digital_tv_latin_a) has announced the addition of the "Digital TV Latin America 2012" report to their offering.
Most Latin American territories are experiencing a surge in digital TV take-up, according to a new report from Digital TV Research. The Digital TV Latin America report estimates that only about a third of TV households received digital signals by end-2011, although this was up from only a quarter a year earlier. By 2017, the report forecasts that more than three-quarters of the region's TV households will have digital TV. This equates to 103 million homes in 2017, up from 40 million at end-2011 - so more than 10 million digital households will be added each year.
From the 63 million digital homes to be added between 2011 and 2017, 15 million will be DTH. Digital cable subscriber numbers will climb by 14.5 million, although analog cable subscriptions will fall by 8.0 million. IPTV will add 4.3 million subscribers. Primary DTT will add 29 million homes between 2011 and 2017, with the number of analog terrestrial households falling by 41 million.
The author of the report, said: DTH subscriptions have overtaken cable in both Brazil and Mexico. Brazil, the largest market in the region, will add nearly 28 million digital TV households across all platforms between 2011 and 2017 to take its total to 47 million. Mexico will provide a further 17 million to reach 26 million.
