SARFT CHINA PROJECTS 500 MILLION CMMB USERS BY 2012 

State Administration for Radio Films and Television( China) has projected over 500 million users of CMMB services by 2012. This follows its highly successful rollout of Mobile TV Services through CMMB terrestrial brodcasting through 2008 and 2009.Commencing wth the summer Olympics in 2008, the rollout already covers over 150 prefecture level urban areas in China and is expected to provide countrywide coverage by end of 2009.By all accounts, this represents one of the fastest rollout of Mobile TV which the world has seen, in the largest mobile market of the World with over 650 million users.


Chinese Mobile Sector Streamlined for Growth

 
MIIT China has mandated that only those mobile Phones which have tuners for CMMB will be granted network access for the new 3G services under the TD-SCDMA technologies operated by China Mobile. This is leading to a runaway growth in mobile CMMB handsets, in no measure assisted  by the large subsidies provided.
