South Africa TV Broadcasting Market is Being Fueled by Increasing Demand of Satellite Television

Increasing penetration of television in the households, rising demand of local content and rising number of television channels is fueling the demand of TV broadcasting in South Africa.

According to TechSci Research report, “South Africa TV Broadcasting Market”- By Region, Competition Forecast and Opportunities, 2018-2028”, The South Africa TV broadcasting market is expanding at a significant growth, owing to rising penetration of television in households and the increasing pay TV viewership in the country. Moreover, rising popularity of local content and high demand of live sports are further boosting the market of South Africa TV broadcasting.

The TV broadcasting market in South Africa is dominated by the satellite TV segment, because people are increasingly choosing to purchase packaged bundles that include pay-tv. The ability to transmit ultra-high picture quality with relative ease as compared to other transmission systems, continues to be a key factor in high adoption rates. Furthermore, the rising set up to operate satellite transmission in a number of locations to view live events like sporting events and live news, is also assisting in fueling industry expansion. Additionally, changes in internet speeds and associated costs restrict consumers' access to OTT media distribution systems, encouraging personal use of satellite-based transmission techniques.

Due to the audience's choice for on-demand video and audio material over traditional transmission, the television industry is actively transitioning from broadcasting to internet. People are switching from cable television and satellite television to over-the-top (OTT) and internet protocol television (IPTV) services, which is largely due to the industry's rapid digitization.

Over the coming years, the market is anticipated to benefit greatly from the IPTV category. The high functionality that IPTV offers over traditional cable TV, such as the capacity to distribute live or recorded programmes via pre-existing networks, is credited with the category growth. Another key issue influencing the revenue streams is the possibility of screen sharing because it allows mobile device users, using tablets and smartphones, to access the same material as TV.

The market for TV broadcasting in South Africa is dominated by the advertising sector, due to the widespread use of cable TV and satellite TV in rural households and the growing desire among marketers to increase their clientele. The market has grown significantly as a result of advertisers and agencies being able to more wisely spend budgets and obtain screen time in accordance with their demands and requirements. A new development in the use of more screens ensures that adverts expand more quickly and provides immediate feedback on their effectiveness, allowing marketers to make the required adjustments to their advertising plans and tactics.
