46 million 4K/UltraHD homes by 2018

October 14, 2014

More than 46 million households worldwide will subscribe to a 4K UHD pay-TV service by 2018, according to Parks Associates.

Pay-TV providers will deploy this service as a differentiator, especially among younger consumers who are more likely to use new pay-TV features, such as TV Everywhere and cloud DVR, but also have slightly lower subscription rates for pay-TV services. In the US, 82% of consumers 18-22 have a pay-TV subscription, compared to 87% among older consumers.
