Non-PC Network-Enabled Stationary Multimedia Devices in Asia/PacificProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: In-Stat Published: January 2008 Product Code: R97-3066 Description In the Asia/Pacific region, PC-literate homes and broadband subscribers represent a large market potential for home networking and various networked multimedia devices. However, consumer awareness is lacking when it comes to non-PC devices that can help them consume their digital content in entertainment-centered areas of their home.The majority of Asia/Pacific home network users still only use their network for Internet sharing. In Asia/Pacific, knowledge of networked CE devices has increased, though mostly among higher-end consumers. Network-enabled consumer CE devices will create equipment opportunities over the next five years. Improvement is still needed when it comes to consumer awareness of the new breed of networked multimedia devices, from Media Center-enabled PCs, to CE-based media servers, digital media adapters, digital media receivers/players, and other devices. We believe that the desire to consume digital content from PCs with a variety of CE devices will increase; however, consumer awareness, product availability, and product pricing will have a major effect on the uptake of network-capable media devices. Over the forecast period, we expect the domination of non-PC network-enabled stationary media devices to slowly move from game consoles to digital TVs. The Asia/Pacific non-PC network-enabled stationary media device shipments are expected to grow by a 26% CAGR from 2006 to 2011. Table of Contents
