Video streaming is the future. Although consumers may not be able to comprehend the changes occurring or television producers have come to appreciate the potential of video streaming, the pieces are there for a revolution within video consumption.
The shift is felt by DVD rental places. Consumers can now download movies to their computer. They don’t have to go to a local DVD shop to check if there are any copies, nor must they wait for shipments from mail-order DVD companies. They can now watch their favorite movies online in minutes.
This video streaming technology allows entertainment consumers to view trailers and teasers of upcoming TV shows.
This will create ripple effects for motel chains that offer movies on demand, which can be bought at a higher price. The free high-speed Internet service is available to PC owners and allows them to download a huge selection of videos without having to pay for the motel services.
Highlight reels from sports games can be viewed online. Television programs are gradually becoming more accessible via the internet. Online video is a secondary platform that allows entertainment consumers to use interactive tools to learn more about characters, behind-the scenes footage, and character blogs.
It is possible that your television and computer will merge in a way that allows them to communicate more clearly and offers more options for you to choose from.
In the future, consumers may not be restricted to viewing their favorite shows within a certain time frame. The show will be available at a specific time and can be downloaded (possibly via an RSS feed). It can then be viewed whenever the user is most convenient. For future reference, the show could be archived. For those who don’t want to watch the whole program, it is possible to get a summary of highlights.
Radio and newspaper have already embraced the world of internet connections. It is obvious that television will follow suit.
Our brains seem to be being trained to connect our interests. The Internet is the best place to test this theory. This is true at home, as well as on the road with iPhones, Blackberries, and laptops.
Video streaming will provide consumers with a wide range of entertainment options that are more in line with their lifestyles.
