Not only is the television industry changing, so are TV sales. Literally.
TV Week reported that worldwide television unit sales during iQ mirrored the previous year. There was a drop in TVs 40
inches or larger. Overall, TV makers shipped 46.1 million units--up 1% from a year earlier, NPD Group unit DisplaySearch said. Customers spent $24.8 billion--up 8% from a year earlier, as more
flat-screen TVs were sold in Russia and the Middle East. Unit sales growth of LCD sets were 45%, the slowest since such data has been tracked. The market-share leaders in dollars spent: Samsung and
Sony.
