Posted June 11, 2010

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/04bccb/lithuania_teleco) has announced the addition of the "Lithuania - Telecoms, Mobile, Broadband and Forecasts" report to their offering.

This report covers trends and developments in telecommunications, mobile, Internet, broadband, digital TV and converging media including VoIP and IPTV developments.

Subjects include:

  • Market and industry analyses, trends and developments;
  • Facts, figures and statistics;
  • Industry and regulatory issues;
  • Infrastructure;
  • Major players, revenues, subscribers, ARPU;
  • Internet, IPTV;
  • Mobile voice and data markets;
  • Broadband (FttH, DSL, cable TV, wireless);
  • Convergence and digital media.

Market highlights:

  • Fibre is the most popular fixed broadband access platform. Unlike the ADSL market competition is much stronger as the incumbent only represents a quarter of total FTTx subscriptions. Growth prospects for fibre are strong due to ongoing deployments by both the private and the public sector. The latter approved in late 2009 the second phase of the publicly funded rural fibre backbone network, Rural Area Information Technology Broadband Network.
  • Widespread business usage of e-government services is evident, with an estimated 90% uptake in 2010 as businesses take advantage of the ability obtain information, forms and return forms online. Private uptake of e-government lags but is expected to grow on the back of increased awareness and recognition of its benefits. Similar initiatives extend to the health and education sectors, with the scope of such initiatives expected to broaden due to EU commitments to online services.
  • Digital TV is expected to represent the majority of pay TV subscriptions in 2010. Telecoms incumbent TEO is well positioned to take advantage of the growing interest and uptake of digital TV services, given that it offers both IPTV and DTTV services.
  • Mobile broadband is the focus for mobile network operators, with take up of HSDPA-based mobile broadband penetration at an estimated 8%. The future growth path of mobile broadband take up is expected to emulate that of the mobile voice market over the coming years as the cost of access and capable handsets decrease and end user awareness and ease of use increases, in turn leading to some cannibalisation of broadband subscribers between the fixed and mobile markets.
