* According to the source, more than one channel of TV reception can be used in one household which may result in a sum exceeding 100 percent.
** The source states the following: "Connected TV: A TV which is connected directly or via another device to the internet (not necessarily a permanent connection)."
Figures for 2020 were based on 38.52 million TV households in Germany. The source adds the following information: "Since this survey is focused on the method of TV reception in households, TV sets that are connected to a shared satellite TV device and do not have a separate receiver (SMATV-CH households) are counted as cable TV. Accordingly, only TV sets with an individual satellite receiver are considered using satellite reception."
