Frequently asked questions

What parameters do you track in the Video Markets Tracker?

We track the metrics you need to understand global video markets — across both Pay TV and streaming.

For Pay TV, we cover subscriber numbers, revenues, ARPU, and platform-level breakdowns. So you can see exactly how each operator and technology is performing.

For streaming, we go further. We track all major business models — SVOD, AVOD, TVOD, EST, and FAST — including subscriber volumes and revenues by platform.

And because raw numbers aren’t enough, we add the context behind them. That includes population, total households, TV households, Pay TV households by technology, broadband penetration, and smartphone usage.

So you’re not just looking at data. You’re understanding the market — clearly and confidently.

What countries and markets do you cover?

We cover 71 countries across global video markets — spanning both mature economies and high-growth regions.

That includes major markets like the UK, USA, China, India, Germany, and Brazil, alongside rapidly growing territories across Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

So whether you’re analysing streaming growth, Pay TV trends, or market entry opportunities, you’re working with truly global coverage.

  • Asia Pacific (APAC)
  • Eastern Europe
  • Latin America (LATAM)
  • Middle East and North Africa (MENA)
  • North America
  • Sub-Saharan Africa
  • Western Europe

Each region includes aggregated totals, plus an “Others” category for complete coverage.

So you can zoom out to see global trends, or drill into individual markets — all in one place.

How often is the Video Markets Tracker updated?

We keep the data current — because markets move fast.

Streaming data is updated twice a year:

  • May to October
  • November to April

We release updates monthly by region, so new insights are always landing.

Pay TV data is updated annually, with all regions refreshed between November and April.

Every update reflects the latest operator results, platform announcements, and macroeconomic changes.

So you’re always working with up-to-date, decision-ready data.

How much historical and forecast data is included?

We include five years of historical data — giving you a solid base for trend analysis and market comparison.

And we forecast five years ahead.

So you can track long-term shifts in streaming adoption, Pay TV performance, and revenue growth — and plan with confidence.

What Pay TV metrics do you include?

We track all major Pay TV operators across key distribution technologies:

  • Digital cable
  • Analog cable
  • IPTV
  • Satellite (DTH)
  • Digital terrestrial television (DTT)

For each, we provide subscriber numbers and revenues at both operator and market level.

We also offer data on total TV households, factoring in free-to-air (FTA) satellite and terrestrial services (DTT and analog).

So you get a complete, structured view of the global Pay TV market.

What streaming metrics are included?

We cover all major streaming models:

  • SVOD (subscription video on demand)
  • AVOD (advertising-supported video on demand)
  • TVOD and EST (transactional models)
  • FAST (free ad-supported streaming TV)

You’ll see both gross and net subscriber numbers, alongside revenue data — at platform and market level.

So whether you’re analysing growth, competition, or monetisation, you’ve got the full picture.

What data sources and methodology do you use?

We build our data from a combination of trusted sources:

  • Operator and platform disclosures
  • Regulatory filings
  • Industry publications
  • Third-party datasets
  • Direct input from our global network of experts

Then our analysts review and reconcile everything.

That ensures consistency across key metrics like households, broadband penetration, and subscriber numbers.

So you can trust the data — and the decisions you make with it.
