Although still in the early stages of deployment, IP video services in Asia Pacific are ramping up and will grow by nearly 80 percent annually through 2010, reports In-Stat. In-Stat forecasts that by 2010 this market�s revenue will reach $4.2 billion. China, Japan, India, and South Korea will account for the majority of regional growth.

In-Stat found the following:

- The major IP-based video service providers leading the market in the region are expected to include Yahoo!BB, Korea Telecom, Chunghwa Telecom, PCCW, China Telecom, China Netcom, SingTel, and Atlas Interactive India.
