Research and Markets: Triple-play services in Brazil: slow progress

Tools

Posted June 23, 2010

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d17903/tripleplay_servic) has announced the addition of the "Triple-play services in Brazil: slow progress" report to their offering.

Brazilian incumbents are trying to focus on broadband expansion and quality of service. High-speed broadband access and pay-TV services are both very expensive in Brazil, with only the wealthy able to afford them. Regulatory issues are preventing telecoms operators from offering discounted triple-play bundles to the masses, and consequently FTTx deployments are very small. Only if regulatory barriers are lifted will the pace of FTTx rollouts increase.
