EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The non-terrestrial television industry in the UK
is experiencing a period of unprecedented growth. Between 1991 and 1995, total
subscription, sponsorship and advertising revenues increased from £140m
to £984m, an increase of 602.9 percent. Key Note estimates that in 1996, the
value of the market will be £1.55bn, excluding telecommunications revenue
to the cable operators. This huge growth in revenues reflects the increasing
consumer penetration of both cable and satellite television. In July 1996,
BSkyB claimed that it had 3.2 million dish subscribers and 2.2 million cable
subscribers.
The increasing market penetration of multichannel
television is a function of the marketing efforts of BSkyB and the continuing
extension of the broadband cable networks. By the end of 1996, cable operators
will have invested £7.4bn in constructing their networks, and by the end
of the century, this figure is expected to reach over £10bn. With the
dramatic growth in subscription television, has come an increasing
fragmentation of audiences. Broadcasters in the terrestrial and non-terrestrial
sectors are under pressure to maintain audience share. The projected launch in
1997 of Channel 5 and the possible privatisation of Channel 4, suggest that
these pressures will intensify in 1997.
All major players in the
broadcasting market are anxious to open up new streams of revenue, from the
larger ITV companies, to the BBC and BSkyB. In all of this frenetic wheeling
and dealing, the much hyped advent of digital terrestrial broadcasting, seems
further away than ever. Into this maelstrom comes the Broadcasting Bill, with
its loosening of the rules governing cross-media ownership.
The flight
of quality programming, from the terrestrial to the non-terrestrial sector that
started with sport and films, will continue into the next 5 years, with drama,
documentaries and news coverage. Many of the companies that are exclusively
terrestrial operators in 1996, will derive an increasingly large proportion of
their revenues from the cable and satellite television market by 2001. Key Note
estimates that by the year 2001 the total value of the non-terrestrial
television market will be approximately £4.5bn.
