The television market is one of the most risky and volatile in consumer electronics. Extremely high fixed costs combined with very low brand loyalty make the TV set market one of fleeting profits and rapid changes.
As part of the Consumer Electronics portfolio, this database module provides comprehensive analysis of the worldwide TV set market and serves as an extension to IMS Research’s Set-top Box Database. It is updated quarterly throughout the year and more frequently if significant market changes occur. Therefore, it provides users with a convenient way to access the latest digital TV statistics as well as TV set shipment estimates and forecasts, as market conditions evolve.
