Toshiba Corp. said Tuesday that it will stop mobile digital satellite broadcasting services at the end of March next year.

Toshiba has been offering the services for specialized mobile equipment via its Mobile Broadcasting Corp. unit since October 2004.

The paid services have not gained sufficient subscribers in part because of growing demand for free broadcasting services targeting mobile handsets.
