The Future of TV Transmission

The digitalisation of TV households is gathering momentum in Germany: by the end of 2012, 77 per cent of TV households will be digitalised at primary reception. This forecast was published by Goldmedia in its latest study, “The Future of TV-transmission”, which analyses the development of broadcasting infrastructures in Germany.

Satellite is the driving force behind digitalisation. More and more analogue satellite TV channels are exclusively transmitted digitally. The diminishing number of these satellite programmes is becoming increasingly unattractive for customers, resulting in digitalisation of 94 per cent of satellite reception by 2012.

This study provides a broad market analysis of the infrastructures of broadcasting in Germany. Developments at the reception level of cable, satellite, terrestrial and DSL/IPTV are analysed.
