The TV of the Future
Can you imagine having a television schedule that you completely control? Sure there's the digital video recorder (DVR), but I'm talking about total and complete control. I'm talking about Internet television.
Currently newer TV sets have a new jack in the back that will allow you to connect your set directly to the Internet. Once you establish that connection you can use your remote control to get updated local weather forecasts, personalized stock quotes and on-demand access to a handful of TV shows just to name a few.
But what if technology was developed to allow you to get rid of the set top box, the gaming console and stereo component so that the broadband Internet and the TV did it all? Since most television stations put their shows online, you could possibly be able to upload any show, movie, song or video at any time without needing local TV stations or cable subscriptions. This could be the wave of the future.
Sure the Internet would have to be faster and TVs would have to be more powerful but look what technology has done for us now. Did you ever think you could have a phone that acted like an MP3 player and let you surf the Web? I'm thinking this Internet TV could really take off. What do you think?
