Video On PCs Becoming Much More Popular

Television slips a bit

Don't Sell Your TV Just Yet!

Television will not lose its supremecy anytime soon because TV is comfort entertainment and the PC is information entertainment.

Currently the PC is the easiest way to gather information. Video is the most effective method to deliver this information because the major of PC users were brought up on video (TV, movies, PC video games).  I would also feel confident in saying the majority of the same PC users have read less than one informational book in the last three years.

People will watch information or promotion videos on PC because they were looking for information in the first place. When the video is entertainment, I believe people still prefer the comfort of their couch or easy chair sitting in front of a large TV connected to their surround or stereo system.

Passive entertainment video on PC will never replace TV viewing because advertisers will kill video on the PC just as they are doing on TV.

The PC has been great for getting in, out, and around very rapidly and succinctly. But advertisiers are polluting the Internet envirnoment just as they have done with TV and print.

I believe in the next few years the commercial internet video landscape will look alot like TV. When there are billions of people (consumers) on the internet daily, there's too much profit being lost by not monetizing videos.

When it comes to video entertainment, I'll always prefer my comfy couch, kick-ass stereo system, popcorn, soda, and remote control.
