Pay TV subscriptions in Venezuela hit 2.57 million, as at the end of March this year. Venezuela’s National Telecommunications Commission said that according to preliminary figures – which might well grow – some 45,000 net new subs have been added since December 2010.
However, this is well down on the net 232,000 who signed up in Q1 2010. The good news is that the past year has seen no losses.
DirecTV is the main market operator with more than a million clients. Net Uno, Intercable and Cable Hogar also operate in the region. The Commission specifies that preliminary figures have been included in the report.
