Research and Markets: Belgium Telecoms, IP Networks and Digital Media - A Comprehensive Overview of the Trends and Developments in the Telecommunications and Digital Media Markets

DUBLIN — (BUSINESS WIRE) — August 14, 2009Research and Markets ( http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/816126/belgium_telecoms) has announced the addition of the " Belgium - Telecoms, IP Networks and Digital Media" report to their offering.

This annual publication, Belgium - Telecoms, IP Networks and Digital Media, provides a comprehensive overview of the trends and developments in the telecommunications and digital media markets in Belgium. Belgium's medium-sized telecom market has seen slower growth since 2007. The fixed-line telephony sector continues to contract while investments in the mobile sector have fallen as the major network builds near completion and MNOs focus on technology upgrades. The country's population is split between two language groups, Flemish and Walloon, which affects regulatory policies. Its geographic position has also affected digital TV market development, given the influence of the neighbouring French and Dutch markets. Belgium has not kept up with the top European performers for broadband penetration, partly due to high retail prices for Internet access. Nevertheless, strong consumer demand for triple play and converged services has stimulated operators to continue investing in network upgrades. In Flanders, the broadband market is shared between Belgacom and Telenet, while in Wallonia and Brussels the once fragmented competition has gradually consolidated.
