TV market share, LG > Sony

[DirtyP2002]

Hey guys,

I just watched TV and I saw a report from the IFA in Berlin. They talked about new TVs, 3D struggle and showed a chart with global market shares for TVs. They said

1. Samsung
2. LG
3. Sony
4. Panasonic

I didn't know that LG has a bigger market share than Sony. I could have imagined Panasonic having a bigger TV business than Sony, but not LG.

Sony gained a lot of market share in the past months thanks to aggressive marketing, especially with the Fifa 2010 world cup.

Here is an article:

LG and Samsung combined have a market share about 53%. That is impressive.
