Spain - Convergence - Triple Play & Digital TV

Synopsis

Spain’s triple play market has grown alongside considerable investment in faster IP networks, largely based on ADSL2+ but including VDSL and some minor fibre launches. Cable operators are currently at the forefront of the convergence markets, having launched 100Mb/s services to provide multiple-channel IPTV as well as VoD, but other operators, based on wholesale access to Telefónica’s fibre network, will gain market share in coming years as fibre networks are extended to most of the country. Satellite TV has seen considerable changes in recent years following the merger of Telefónica’s Via Digital with Canal Satélite Digital. Digital Terrestrial TV, re-launched in late 2005, has shown considerable progress, reaching more than half of the population by mid-2009 ahead of analogue switch-off in April 2010. This report provides an overview of developments in bundled and VoIP services in 2010, and also analyses the digital and satellite TV markets.
