France Telecom has 872K IPTV Subscribers

France Telecom announced that it had 872 thousand IPTV subscribers at the end of 2Q07. This is up 104 thousand in the quarter and up 282 thousand since the beginning of the year. It also had 16 thousand subscribers in other European countries. It will be running an IPTV trial in the UK in 2H07.

France Telecom should end 2007 with at least 1.1 IPTV subscribers. It is seeing a nice acceleration in its IPTV service and added over 500 thousand subscribers in the last 12 months. The repricing that was implemented in June 2006 has had a very strongly positive effect.
