Global Online Gaming Market

?The global online gaming market has experienced rapid growth since
its establishment in the 1990s but remains relatively immature.
Although estimates as to the current size and growth rates of the
global online gaming market vary considerably, it is estimated by
Christiansen Capital Advisors, LLC that the market generated revenue
of approximately $8.2 billion in 2004, representing just over three
per cent of the total global gaming market. In 2004, casino and bingo
games represented approximately 29 per cent of the online gaming
market, and poker represented approximately 13 per cent.
For the five-year period from 2005 to 2009, it is estimated that
revenues generated by the global online gaming market will increase to
approximately $22.7 billion, representing a compound annual growth
rate of approximately 22 per cent. On this basis, the global online
gaming market would still only represent approximately eight per cent
of the total global gaming market in 2009.?
