Lite-On IT aims for 10-15% of the global
DVD recorder market 07/30/2004 05:16 AM
Lite-On IT expects to claim 10%-15% of the global market for DVD recorders in 2005, up from an estimated 8.3% this year, company president Danny Liao indicated. Lite-On IT has been developing DVD recorder technology since 2000, and the company is optimistic about the market since DVD recorders, unlike DVD players, have a high technology threshold, preventing low-priced competition from China, Liao pointed out.

Lite-On IT DVD recorders are sold in the retail channel in the US and Europe. The number of Costco outlets selling the company’s DVD recorders in the US has grown from six to about 400. The company’s Europe channel includes Dixons in the UK and Casino in France, Liao noted. In addition, Lite-On IT is making efforts to secure OEM/ODM orders from international brands, Liao added.

Apple leads in booming global MP3 market

Apple leads in booming global MP3 market 06/22/2005 01:54 AM
Apple is the leader in worldwide MP3 sales with 30.2 percent of the combined HDD and Flash-based MP3 market -- a market which recorded a revenue increase of 200 per cent to reach approximately $4.5 billion in 2004. In-Stat released a report today that cited falling prices, the availability of legitimate subscription and pay-per-download online music sites, smaller hard disk drives and increasing Flash memory capacities as reasons for the booming MP3 player market. "As competition heats up, vendors are striving to differentiate products by offering a wide range of price points, memory capacities and features," said Stephanie Guza, In-Stat analyst. "As a result, we are seeing increased segmentation. For example, the hard disk drive (HDD) digital audio player segment can be subdivided into two categories: the 1-inch or smaller segment and the 1.8-inch segment." In-Stat also says that survey data shows that the percentage of U.S. respondents owning a digital audio player has increased from 16% in 2001 to 25% in 2005.

Study sees decline in global handset

Study sees decline in global handset
market 06/22/2005 02:56 AM

The global handset market will slow down, so companies must target new demographics and create innovative marketing strategies for existing users, according to a new study by consultancy Frost & Sullivan.

Although the total number of mobile handsets sold is expected to rise, the average price of each unit is expected to fall as vendors aim at emerging markets. Overall, worldwide revenues are projected to fall by nearly 16 percent by the end of the decade -- from $126.28 billion in 2004 to $106.59 billion in 2010.

The study, which described the current era in the handheld industry as one of "transition," offered suggestions to help handset companies attempt to turn the trend around. One way for the industry to gain revenue is to market newer and more expensive technology to existing handheld users, Frost & Sullivan said. For instance, the "smart phone," which includes a mobile phone, a PDA (personal digital assistant), and a notebook computer all in one, could appeal to current and former users because such a device is easier to carry than several different devices.

Another important move for mobile handheld device companies is to market toward the technology friendly youth market. Young people between the ages of 13 and 25 offer a lucrative revenue stream and the youth market represents demand for a variety of applications such as downloading ringtones, text messaging and interactive gaming. In fact, youths' downloading of ringtones accounts for the majority of the industry's current revenue.

But perhaps more important is another universal characteristic young customers in particular represent -- the demand for similar quality in wireless devices as in the wired Internet and the unwillingness to settle for less, the study said.

The study, which surveyed hundreds of companies, added that the industry should be -- and is -- turning its focus to emerging markets around the world. By moving production facilities to new regions that will soon experience greater wireless penetration the companies will be able to save on production costs and create proximity to the untapped markets.

The study suggested that though revenues are expected to decline, consumer electronics is still shifting more and more toward mobile devices. It hinted that the handheld industry will have a chance to capitalize as long as companies aggressively explore markets and demographics and respond quickly to the customers' need for personalized and integrated wireless equipment.
