Streaming Content No Longer Just for the Computer

Industry experts say 2010 might be considered the year the TV and the computer collided.  As announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (http://www.cepro.com/slideshow/image/5944/) TVs are being produced ready to provide streaming video and online content, with the click of the remote. This year, companies like Samsung (http://www.samsung.com/us/internetTV/ ), Sharp (http://sharpusa.com/SharpDirect.aspx) and LG (http://www.lge.com/us/netcast/index.jsp) have opened app stores for customers to buy widgets and other apps. All that you need to do to get started is to plug one of these TVs into your home Internet and follow the instructions.

Streaming content means that TVs are now able to access the Internet and provide more content than ever before. Having streaming content on your TV means films, music, online videos, the moment you want them, right on your TV. Instantly watch YouTube, Netflix, or listen to music on Pandora. Widgets let you see news, weather, sports, twitter, all with the option of splitting the screen so nothing is missed. Streaming media brings the Internet to your TV.

This expanded content has opened up an entirely new future for home entertainment. Come to The Sound Room, your only local member of the Home Technology Specialists of America,( http://www.htsa.com/) and find out why streaming content is being dubbed as the future of TV.
