Customer preferences in Central America are shifting towards more on-demand and personalized content.

Trends in the market indicate a shift towards digital platforms and online streaming services. Traditional TV and home video formats are facing competition from digital platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and local streaming services. These platforms offer a vast library of content and the flexibility to watch anytime, anywhere. The convenience and affordability of these services are attracting a growing number of consumers, leading to a decline in traditional TV viewership and DVD sales. Local special circumstances in Central America, such as limited access to cable and satellite TV services in rural areas, have also contributed to the growth of digital platforms. Streaming services provide an alternative for consumers who do not have access to traditional TV services. The increasing availability of internet connectivity and the proliferation of smartphones have further facilitated the adoption of streaming services in the region. Underlying macroeconomic factors, such as improving internet infrastructure and rising disposable incomes, are also driving the growth of the Traditional TV & Home Video market in Central America. As internet penetration increases and the cost of internet services decreases, more consumers are gaining access to streaming platforms. Additionally, rising disposable incomes are enabling consumers to afford subscription-based services and invest in high-quality home entertainment systems.

The shift towards on-demand content, the rise of digital platforms, limited access to traditional TV services, and improving internet infrastructure are all contributing to the growth of the market in the region.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Traditional TV & Home Video and OTT (over-the-top) Services. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Segment size:

The segment size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the segment size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant segment. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
