MENA to add 18m SVOD subs

February 9, 2021 08.47 Europe/London By Chris Dziadul

The 20 countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region will have 32.65 million SVOD subscriptions by 2026.

This, according to the latest report by Digital TV Research, will be up from the 14.16 million recorded at the end of last year. Turkey will remain the market leader by a considerable distance, with nearly 14 million subscriptions by 2026.

Commenting on the findings of the report, Simon Murray, principal analyst at Digital TV Research, said: Netflix and Disney+ will account for about half of the region’s total by 2026, despite Disney+ only starting in 2022 in a limited number of countries. Due to exclusive deals with Disney+, HBO and Paramount+, OSN will quickly gain subscribers”.
