SUMMARY
Fixed line operators, wireless carriers, ISPs, and new service providers are
creating new IP-enabled telecommunications services services that go well
beyond what was offered or could be offered in the PSTN. Billions of dollars
are being spent worldwide on new IP infrastructure in order to provision this
new generation of revenue-generating services. Carriers look at IP application
platforms as a means to beginning their slow migration to fully convergent,
IP-based networks and services. Some carriers view IP-based applications as
highly personalized "sticky applications" that will stem the tide of customer
churn; other carriers are pinning their hopes on IP applications as the
vehicle that will bring new service revenue on stream at a quicker pace.
The Global IP-Based Applications Services Market 2008-2013 provides detailed
data on the status of the IP-based applications market in each global region.
IP-enabled applications market assessments for each global region are provided
for residential video telephony, fixed-mobile convergence, file
sharing/downloading and MMS services, streaming services, location-based
services, and presence-based services. The study evaluates the status of the
market as it exists today and provides a detailed analysis of how it will
develop over the next five years.
