The increasing popularity of telco-supplied video services is spawning robust growth in the IP/DSL set top box market. Analysts at In-Stat/MDR say 2003 was the first year any IP/DSL set top box manufacturer shipped over 100,000 units in a single year.
"By 2008, the worldwide market will reach over seven million units and more than $700 million in revenue," says In-Stat/MDR analyst Michelle Abraham. "Most of the shipments and revenue will come from Europe and Asia where telephone company (telco) TV activity is greatest," Abraham says.
A recent report from In-Stat/MDR also reveals the following:
The market will grow to 1.3 million unit shipments in 2004.
The stepped-up activity has caused IP/DSL set top box manufacturers to develop new product models. Many have expanded their product lines to include several models rather than only one.
Increased volumes are bringing the costs of IP/DSL set top boxes down. Basic boxes can be found for less than $100 today as compared with $150 last year.
