UPC Romania continued to lose clients in the analogue TV cable area but gained new ones in digital television and direct-to-home (DTH) television, according to the report of Liberty Global International.
UPC had a total number of subscriptions of 1,542,100 at the end of Q2, 2011, which represents a growth of 1,400 more on the first quarter of the year.
