Growth in the pay TV market
Digital IPTV services and multimedia content (video-on-demand, HD content, interactive TV content and internet television) continue to record growth. IPTV accounts for 45.6% of all TV connections in Slovenia (Q4 2014) and continues to grow. Cable TV is also recording growth in connections, p
rimarily on account of the number of digital connections. At 52.9% (Q4 2014), the Telekom Slovenije Group holds the highest share of the IPTV market. According to AKOS figures, 71.4% of Slovenian households have pay TV (Q4 2014).
According to forecasts by Analysys Mason, the pay TV market in Western Europe is expected to grow by 21% from 2013 to 2019, with growth in OTT (over-the-top) and IPTV services contributing most to overall growth. Cable TV will remain the leading technology in the pay TV market, although it is expected to decline by 4.4% until 2019. Pay TV household penetration will exceed 64% in Western Europe over the same period.
OTT services for households will grow, primarily as a second TV receiver, as users will wish to reduce TV costs. A total of 3.2% of households in Western Europe will use OTT as their primary receiver by 2019, while 47.7% will use the aforementioned technology as their secondary receiver.
