Are you sick of paying hundreds of dollars a month for cable or satellite TV? As more and more people move to web-based information, news, entertainment and shopping maybe its time to also make a similar move with our TV’s. Canadians pay some of the highest cable/tv (and Cellphone and Internet) rates in the world due to lack of competition. Access to the Internet and streaming services opens up the market. As a result, prices drop.
To understand streaming our TV we must disregard the way TV works now. In the past (and today) TV stations broadcast tv shows on their schedule. We huddle around the TV to watch “when it’s on”. With streaming “it’s on” always, we choose when to watch it, on our schedule.
A recent push to PVRs to store our shows so we can watch them when we want is a great idea but is quickly becoming obsolete. With streaming, all of our shows are made available and accessed when we want to watch them at our demand. With streaming, PVR’s become obsolete, much like broadcast TV itself.
The only things that have an inherent need to be “live” or broadcast in real-time are sports and news. All other shows do not need to be live/broadcast or on a schedule at all. This is a fundamental shift.
