I was eavesdropping in on a conversation a few computer specialists and TV producers were having last week and they were talking about the computer and televised programing. Their conversation turned to broadcasters like ABC , CBS, NBC and that caught my attention. They mentioned that GE is trying to sell off NBC to Comcast a large Internet company. Mainly because GE can read the writing on the wall. The end to TV broadcasting as we know it will be over in about 5 yrs. We will be programing/selecting the shows we watch and they will be downloaded from our computers directly to our TV sets. Interesting I thought. There are supposedly two businesses (Apple and Google) that do this kind of work now and they are in the infancy stage but supposedly it's the future in our TV viewing habits. Any producers or computer specialists out there know anything about this development? I'm a dummy when it comes to computers, so please use laymans talk.
Google TV and Apple TV will be the dominating forces. Why buy 300 channels you don't watch When you can just buy the 25 or so you do watch? Thats a no brainer. The TV subscriber base, (service provider) is disappearing and the TV Internet base is increasing. computers directly talking to the TV technology is advancing. IPTV, the way we select what we view on our TV of the future. Any thoughts? Any tips?
Keep it up,
