In Europe, there is evidence of an intense fragmentation into very different national markets. This peculiar situation that is rather peculiar from anything else in the world: broadband connections, linguistic and cultural barriers, technology gaps, and uneven development and maturity of such markets constitute barriers to what could be a common market for audiovisual content.

A second tier of markets, like the French and German ones, are still new, but reflect an increase in consumer awareness for these new forms of entertainment: the number of subscriptions rapidly increases, and will keep growing in the following years. Among such markets there are most notably Ireland, Austria and Luxembourg.

In a third tier of underdeveloped markets belong countries like Italy, Spain, as well as Greece.
