"government-mandated dedicated bandwidth", but that's one I forgot about.
1/13th of terrestrial bandwidth (actually, time slices) is devoted to this
service.

The most successful land-based mobile TV broadcast service is in
Japan, which is using the ISDB standard; the mobile service is called
1-seg. I believe that the government mandates that the mobile 1-Seg
service simulcasts the programming carried on the full bandwidth ISDB
service for fixed receivers. In February the installed base of phones
with 1-seg capabilities in Japan passed the 20 million mark - I can't
find anything more recent in terms of numbers.
The satellite based mobile TV service in Korea is also highly popular.
