Taiwan will completely switch terrestrial TV broadcasting from analog to digital on July 1, 2012, boosting the local TV sector - including content, hardware and services - to NT$130 billion (US$4.3 billion) next year, according to industry sources in Taiwan.

In addition to terrestrial TV broadcast, the Taiwan government plans to complete digitization of cable TV in 2014, the sources indicated. There are about five million household subscribers of cable TV services in Taiwan currently, and digital cable TV only accounts for about 9.5% of the users, the sources said.

In line with the digitization of terrestrial TV broadcast, local and foreign TV brands are expected to launch promotional campaigns next year, the sources noted.
