SUMMARY
This detailed report provides a complete analysis of current and future
opportunities for mobile TV. It discusses recent developments in the market
for streamed and broadcast mobile TV services, focusing on the different
applications and standards currently in trial across a number of markets. It
also examines the implications of key regulatory decisions (such as the EU's
quasi-mandating of the DVB-H standard, and spectrum licensing) and highlights
both hurdles to deployment and issues that will arise when services have been
commercially deployed. The in-depth study provides vital forecast data on
subscriber growth, ARPU and total revenues, and offers strategic
recommendations for operators, broadcasters, service providers, vendors and
regulators.
