Astra says it has added 1.72 million households in Germany to bring the total number of DTH homes reached to 9.75 million. In total, Germany had 36.98 million analogue and digital TV homes last year. The number of satellite households remains stable at 16.7 million or 45 per cent of all TV households while cable serves 17.9 million TV homes or 48.4 per cent. These figures come from the latest Satellite Monitor, conducted annually by TNS Infratest on behalf of SES Astra.
