“…As technological convergence provides an opportunity to develop new services, communications firms tend to be incentivized to enter new technology markets to attract greater consumer segments [22]. In the communications market, a firm sometimes enters a new market either to introduce a new revenue stream by expanding its services or to reduce the firm's costs of offering services [23,24].…”

This study examines the factors influencing early paid Over-The-Top (OTT) video streaming market growth in 50 countries. The results of the panel data analysis suggest that Netflix’s market entry, traditional pay TV market size, broadband infrastructure, and OTT platform competition contribute to the early market growth of paid OTT video streaming services, such as subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services. The results also reveal that the traditional pay TV subscription market and the paid OTT video streaming market initially grow together in many countries. However, the findings also reveal a negative association between the market entry of Netflix and the subscription revenue growth rate of traditional pay TV services. The results of this study suggest industry and policy implications for paid OTT video streaming market growth and the sustainable development of the media industry.

The more competition in the market, the more consumer prices for TV services are disciplined (e.g., Goolsbee and Petrin, 2004;Karikari et al, 2003;Seo, 2008). Other studies assessed the impact on programming quality and content diversity.…”

This article focuses on the recent wave of M&A activity, both vertical and horizontal in TV broadcasting and distribution industries, and discusses the implications of M&A activity for competition, industrial and media policymaking. Moreover, it aspires to set a forward-looking perspective on the regulation of M&A in the TV industry. It is argued that while EU competition policy has difficulties to fully grasp anti-competitive effects resulting from vertical M&A activity in particular, industrial and media-specific policies dealing with the creation of an economically and culturally sustainable, European broadcasting and distribution sector are virtually absent from national and European policy agendas. It is particular in the latter two domains of policymaking that policy action is necessary. Highlights M&A activity in TV broadcasting and distribution industries is heating up  Consolidation wave produces global powerhouses that control entire TV value chain  Competition policy has imposed behavioural and structural remedies  Industrial and media-specific policies are virtually absent from policy agendas  Call for a more integrated policy approach towards M&A in Tv markets
