Personal Video Recorders Expand Their Reach
In-Stat/MDR, April 2004, Pages: 34
Since being introduced in 1999, Personal Video Recorder (PVR) products have been somewhat slow to catch on with consumers. Even with an almost continuous stream of rave reviews from satisfied PVR users, most people failed to see why they needed to hook up yet another set top box to their TV set. However, the PVR market seemed to hit its stride in the past year, as worldwide unit shipments tripled and increasing numbers of consumers became aware of the benefits of time-shifting their TV programming.
This report discusses the functionality of todays PVR products and provides an in-depth look at key PVR manufacturers, leading service providers, and the important trends that are shaping the rapidly growing PVR market. The report provides worldwide PVR unit shipment and revenue forecasts, unit shipments to specific geographic regions, and unit shipment forecasts by PVR product segment, to include DBS set top boxes, stand-alone PVR products, cable set top boxes, DVD-PVR combination devices, and other emerging PVR products.
