The direct-to-home(dth) services market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $150.58 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as technological evolution with a focus on 4K and beyond resolution, integration of over-the-top (OTT) services and hybrid offerings, expansion of value-added services, an increase in HD channels and content, and the implementation of targeted advertising and personalization. Major trends expected in the forecast period include content customization and bundling, a shift towards on-demand and streaming services, multi-screen and cross-device viewing, integration of interactive features, and a heightened focus on regional and local content.
The growth in demand for ultra-HD quality content is a driving force in the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market. Ultra High Definition (UHD) provides high-resolution and superior image quality on 4K/UHD televisions. According to a research report by Intertrust Group, the global 4K Ultra HD TV market is projected to reach $380.9 billion by 2025. Ultra HD televisions represent the latest and fastest-growing segment in consumer electronics, with the USA leading the growth in the 4K/UHD market, followed by the UK, France, Germany, and China. DTH service providers such as AT&T and DirecTV are upgrading channels to stream at 4K/UHD quality, catering to the increasing demand for energy-efficient and high-quality video content. Notably, 44% of US TV purchasers reported acquiring new TVs because of a desire for larger screens. Consequently, the demand for UHD is propelling the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market alongside the rise of DTH services and OTT applications.
An increase in disposable income stands out as a significant driver in the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market. Disposable income, which represents the money available for spending and saving after deducting taxes and essential expenses, plays a crucial role. DTH services offer cost-effective and customizable entertainment options, potentially saving consumers money and augmenting disposable income by allowing them to choose specific content. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, disposable personal income increased by $7.3 billion (less than 0.1 percent) in July 2023. This rise in disposable income is anticipated to propel the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market further.
Despite these positive trends, signal latency poses a challenge to the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market. Signal latency refers to the time taken for a satellite signal to traverse from the server to an end-user. With increased online streaming activities, streaming latency has decreased compared to traditional distribution methods. For instance, Starlink, the satellite internet constellation by SpaceX, experienced a drop in median download speeds and an increase in latency, highlighting the impact of signal latency on user experience. Consequently, signal latency remains a constraint on the growth of the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market.
A current trend emerging in the Direct-To-Home (DTH) services market is the incorporation of interactive TV services. Interactive services encompass various activities, such as movie-on-demand, video conferencing, and email, enhancing user engagement. DTH service providers are integrating interactive services to transform the user interface and compete with OTT players. The television industry has adapted to provide interactive services and games alongside channel broadcasting to enhance the overall user experience.
In June 2023, Eutelsat Communications partnered with Du to upgrade DTH satellite services across the Middle East and North Africa, aiming to optimize user experience and offer enhanced content delivery. This strategic collaboration enables Du to provide superior content delivery to consumers in the region and further enrich their viewing experience. Du, based in the UAE, is a prominent telecommunications company.
