Abstract
Over the next decade, mobile technology will play a significant role in the broadcast media as mobile television services can allow broadcasters to reach their audience regardless of where viewers are located.

Samsung Electronics has completed development of the worlds first satellite DMB chip for mobile phones. Korea Telecom plans to launch satellite DMB in 2006

APRGs Approach with this Research
- The purpose of our interviews was to understand Asian consumers interest towards mobile digital television and how they would prefer to pay for it.
- APRG researchers conducted one-on-one interviews in seven countries in Asia Pacific, as well as a focus group in each country. Interview locations were in shopping malls, universities, rail /subway / bus stations, and corporate workplaces. We believed interviewing in the field was conducive to gathering a random sampling from a cross section of demographic audiences. Each interview took about 15 minutes.
- The survey and interviews were technology agnostic - no mention was made of any handset vendor, operator, or service provider.
