According to Brazil’s Agência Nacional de Telecomunicações (Anatel), the country’s pay TV subscriber base ended March 2016 at 18.95 million, with 162 thousand subscribers being lost in the quarter to leave the total 813 thousand down on one year before.
In the quarter, satellite lost 209 thousand subscribers, to finish with 1.1 million fewer than at the end of March 2015. This was somewhat compensated by growth in cable which added 228 thousand subscribers and FTTH which added 68 thousand subscribers over the year.
