VZ - U.S. pay TV revenue falling to $56B by 2025 research shows
A new forecast suggests U.S. pay TV revenue will drop to $56B in 2025, and global pay TV revenue is headed for a 15-year low by then. Digital TV Research says that U.S. figure will have declined from a peak of $105B in 2015. And the global number will drop to $152B in 2025 - below even 2010's $175B. That's despite the fact that pay TV subscribers will have risen by 345M in that 15-year span. And the revenue drop despite rising subscribers is due to the declines coming in mature, high-priced markets. The U.S. projected figure of $56B is still far higher than anywhere else. The top five pay TV countries will make up about 54% of global pay TV revenue by 2025. Aside from the $56B in the U.S., China's revenues will be $9.3B; the UK and Canada will lose about $1B each to $5.8B and $5.1B respectively;
