Rethink TV
Rethink TV forecasts and explains how changing business models will revolutionize video delivery
“The land-grab for OTT viewers is resulting in new ways of defining OTT video operators and players whilst shaking up traditional linear pay TV and free-to-air businesses and their revenue models.”
But in the most competitive market in the world; subject to all its restrictions, regulations, cultural variations and languages; how can suppliers of content, products and services plan and profit from this new market?
Focus areas include:
• Why the spend on OTT video is so high in Germany
• How territorial differences, such as the UK’s love for Netflix, impose on final tallies
• A step-by-step explanation of possible scenarios and variations that may become important
• Why local SVoD services flourish in some countries but not in others
• When, in the next five years, competitor will outperform each other based on current rates of growth
• What cheap WiFi or abundant mobile delivery can do to affect numbers
• Surveys made up of a series of country-by-country forecasts.
Methodology
The workings for each forecast are based on three factors:
1) Previous statements about OTT customers made by executives of the operators;
2) A linear forecast based on subscribers growing at a similar rate;
3) A calculation of the slow-down as each operator approaches saturation point (particularly where more than one individual subscriber per home is using the service).
The numbers are based either on subscriber numbers or on regular TV Everywhere users, who view content at the rate of at least once a week or more often.
At Rethink, we are aware that this market is moving target, in that multiple layers of technology (such as new advertising insertion tools) are likely to change uptake rate. This is why we are not factoring in innovation, where, for example, one failing pay TV player may improve its offering and thereby absorb considerably more market share than it has at present.
