In the last Broadcasting Worldwide (BCWW) convention celebrated in Seoul we heard some interesting stats about mobile TV in China.
Wu Chunlei, CEO of Shanghai Dragon New Media, part of the Shanghai Media Group, said there are “2.1 million mobile TV users, including 250,000 paid-for subscriptions, at rates as low as $1.60 a month. (In China) Video is the only killer application for 3G so far.”
Maybe this stats could seem so high, but we have to keep in mind that nowadays, China has more than 508 million users (July’07). So only 0,4% of users use this kind of 3G service, less than other countries such us UK, Italy, Germany or Spain.
