The Global Internet Protocol Television Market size is expected to reach $222.3 billion by 2031, rising at a market growth of 16.5% CAGR during the forecast period.
The growing demand for diverse and on-demand content, including movies, series, and live shows, largely drives this. The shift from traditional broadcasting to internet-based entertainment has propelled IPTV as a preferred platform for media consumption, particularly with the rise of original content and exclusive offerings. The media & entertainment industry has also benefited from advancements in video quality, personalized recommendations, and interactive features, which have boosted IPTV’s appeal in this segment. Thus, the media & entertainment segment procured 32% revenue share in the internet protocol television market in 2023.
Modern consumers seek the flexibility that encompasses the capacity to access content across multiple devices, whether they are at home or on the go. This cross-device accessibility also caters to the trend of multiscreen viewing, where users watch different content simultaneously on different devices. Thus, the increased adoption of smart TVs will lead to the market's growth. Additionally, IPTV platforms increasingly incorporate interactive elements such as real-time polling, social media integration, and live chat features, especially for live events like sports broadcasts or reality TV shows. For instance, during the 2020 UEFA Champions League, several IPTV providers enabled interactive features where viewers could vote for man-of-the-match awards or participate in live chats with other fans during the game. Therefore, as IPTV providers continue to innovate and enhance these capabilities, they will likely see further market expansion.
However, the cost of subscribing to multiple OTT platforms can be more appealing than traditional IPTV services, which often come bundled with higher-priced TV subscriptions. As a result, OTT platforms are rapidly gaining traction in regions where affordability and ease of access are key consumer factors. Thus, the growing dominance of OTT platforms will continue to erode IPTV’s market share, especially as streaming technologies evolve, and new content offerings expand.
