Speaking of explosions, encoders revs will be bigger than decoders... Hmmm... Research Firm Sees Swift Growth in MPEG -2 Market 06/21/1999 DVD Report (c) 1999 Phillips Business Information, Inc. Insight Research (Parsippany, NJ) says the market for devices using MPEG-2 encoders and decoders will reach $23.9 billion this year - and then grow by 51.5% annually to exceed $125 billion in 2003. Certain segments are expected to lead the way, with sales of HDTV and set-top boxes (including DVD players) nearly doubling each year. Insight predicts that worldwide sales of devices using MPEG-2 encoders will top $115 billion in 2003, with the decoder market making up the other $10 billion. The figures represent estimated street prices of final products sold to end users, including DVD players and recorders, PC-based DVD equipment, HDTV, digital camcorders, cable converter boxes, and DBS converter boxes. They do not include software-based MPEG-2 systems. Insight's findings are published in its new study, The Market for MPEG-2 and Video Services, 1998-2003, available for $3495.
