Global Digital Publishing Markets Report 2021: Increasing Digitization of Books and Educational Information - Forecast to 2025 & 2030

DUBLIN, May 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Digital Publishing Global Market Report 2021: COVID-19 Implications and Growth to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global digital publishing market is expected to grow from $51.06 billion in 2020 to $56.09 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.9%.

The change in growth trend is mainly due to the companies stabilizing their output after catering to the demand that grew exponentially during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The market is expected to reach $75.4 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 8%.

Major players in the digital publishing market are Thomson Reuters Corp., RELX Group Plc, Adobe Inc., Xerox Corp., Apple Inc., Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holtzbrinck GmbH, Amazon.com Inc., Netflix Inc., Comcast Corp. and Alphabet Inc.

Increasing digitization of books and educational information is contributing to the growth of digital publishing market. Conversion of the information into digital format contributed to the change in learning methods like the shift from traditional printed textbooks to digital modes such as e-readers, smartphones, and tablets.

For instance, due to COVID 19 lockdown in mid-2020 across the globe, the sale of physical books has gone down as most of the publishing house and bookstores were closed and readers spent most of the time in reading e-books. In India, sale of physical books went down by 80% and sale of e-books had almost doubled during the lockdown.

Earlier pre-COVID 19, e-books or online newspaper and journals were popular among Generation Z or Millennials but during Covid 19 even Gen X and baby boomers too got aligned to this. Therefore, this trend is expected to be continued post COVID 19 also, thus driving the market for digital publishing during the period.

The threat from open educational resources and alternative textbook sources is one of the biggest challenges faced by digital publishing market. The market growth may be hindered by the availability and accessibility of either free or affordable resources on the web. The revenue generated will be affected owing to the emergence of no-cost access, adaption and use of content available online with limited or no restrictions. 

The digital publishing market covered in this report is segmented by type into text content, video content, audio content. It is also segmented by end user into scientific, technical, and medical (STM), legal and business and by application into smart phones, laptops, PCs, others.

Consumers are increasingly using internet-based set-top boxes for high quality video-content and audio-content. The global android set-top boxes market size is expected to reach $695.9 million by 2025 from $172.5 million in 2018 according to a market analysis. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has decided to completely shut down analog TV transmission by 2023 and recommended introduction of digital broadcast transmission. The rising adoption of Android STBs with integration of OTT apps in place of analog TVs is further expected to drive the digital publishing market.
