LONDON: Digital TV Research forecasts that the Asia Pacific will see 666 million pay-TV subscribers by 2022, with China and India collectively accounting for 80 percent of that total.<\/p>\n
China will add 40 million subs between 2016 and 2022, with India bringing in an additional 30 million. However, 5 of the 22 countries covered in the Asia Pacific Pay TV Forecasts<\/em> report will lose subs between 2016 and 2022.<\/p>\n Together China, India and Japan will account for more than two-thirds of the region\u2019s $40.13 billion pay-TV revenues by 2022. Pay-TV revenue is forecast to increase by $5.75 billion between 2016 and 2022. India will contribute $3.25 billion to the additional revenues, with China bringing in $1.1 billion more. Pay-TV revenues will double in Bangladesh and Myanmar, but will fall in six other countries.<\/p>\n Digital cable will supply 72 million of the 92 million pay-TV subscriber additions between 2016 and 2022. Analog cable subscriptions, however, will fall by 70 million, leaving cable nearly flat overall.
