Connected Consumer Survey 2020: TV and video services in emerging Asia–Pacific

This report focuses on aspects of Analysys Mason’s Connected Consumer Survey that relate to the behaviour, preferences and plans of consumers in their use of pay-TV and OTT video services in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand. The viewership of video content is changing rapidly in these countries, and the interaction between pay-TV and OTT services is complex.

This report provides:

• insight into the current use of pay-TV and OTT video services in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand
• discussion of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on viewing behaviour and what this might mean for pay-TV services in the region
• analysis of the feature sets that will need to be adapted in order to defend against future churn
• information about which content genres consumers consider to be important and how this varies between customers of different services and countries.
