Research and Markets: Turning Digital - Seamless Television

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/dzzwkp/turning_digital) has announced the addition of the "Turning Digital - Seamless Television" report to their offering.

The European TV industry, although affected by the crisis, managed to grow by a modest but encouraging +2.7%, compared to +5.6% in 2010.

European net TV advertising revenues decreased by 0.9% in 2011. In the overall landscape, pay TV continues its incremental path, even though it slows down compared to the previous year. The +5.7% increase still represents an outstanding performance in an otherwise stagnating framework.

Over the last few years, the multiplication of distribution platforms has attracted new players in the TV market, and brought a significant increase in the number of channels. As a matter of fact, TV has still many chances to attract large audiences, in unconventional ways, targeting different tastes, different viewing habits and even different budgets.

As a result, multichannel is growing year over year, and in 2011 represented nearly half of total market revenues (48%), compared to 45% in 2010.
