Asia Pacific Wireless E-Reader and Touch Screen Tablet Market - Insights and Forecast to 2014 published by Asia Pacific Research Group (APRG) in May, 2010. This report consists of 18 pages and the price starts from US $ 1600.
Abstract
This research report outlines results of APRG's latest research on the
e-reader and tablet market in Asia Pacific. Results of focus groups conducted
in major locations across Asia, as well as discussions with a number of
publishers, and product development and engineering teams provides a timely
forecast of the market opportunities for e-readers and tablets in Asia Pacific.
Highlights of some of the key findings include:
- We expect strong growth for e-readers and tablets as Asian consumers are
seeking content anywhere, anytime. Our outlook for these devices is that more
than 4 million devices will be sold in 2011- 2012, resulting in more than $1.5
billion in revenue.
- There is actually a very strong preference for digital media across Asia.
The romantic idea of holding a bound paper edition is not a pervasive emotion
in Asia.
- The youth market is ready now - they are not only keen on the the idea of
e-readers and tablets, but they are ready to purchase them. Tablets will
bridge the gap between e-readers and netbooks. Tablets will not only display
books and magazines, but can stream video and music to users.
- In Asia, e-content desires lean heavily towards non-fiction, magazines and
periodicals, comics, and trade publications; price-points must be far more
realistic than Amazon is charging.
- Japan's publishing industry deals with a massive number of titles, with as
many as 70,000 new titles added each year. Over 4,000 magazine titles are
currently in retail circulation. Publishers are expecting some genres to
distribute well over a million issues digitally.
The objective of this report is to provide strategic insights into how the
market is developing, and what the opportunities and risks are over the next
five years in key markets such as China, Japan, and India. Metrics in this
report are sourced from APRG consumer surveys and interviews with vendors and
publishers.
