DUBLIN, Ireland - (Business Wire) Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c93322) has announced the addition of Australia - Pay TV - Statistics - Industry Revenues and Analysis to their offering.

The pay TV companies supplying pay TV services across Australia have had to withstand sustained losses, as the high costs of the infrastructure rollouts have impacted on the bottom line. Finally the industry turned the corner in 2006 as the benefits of the introduction of digital TV started to take effect. By 2007, close to 100% of pay TV subscribers in Australia were on the digital service. Moving into 2008, the cost structure of the industry will become more sustainable and the industry will become more profitable.

In 2006 ARPU of both Austar and Foxtel continued to improve, driven by high consumption of its digital services and higher tier packages. However, penetration had only reached 24.5% and we only expect penetration to reach 26% by the end of 2007. This report combines a range of statistics such as revenue per operator, revenue market share, ARPUs, churn rates as well as forecasts that are crucial to the pay TV suppliers.
