Streaming Media East May 12 – Set Top Boxes

Set-top boxes are quickly bridging the gap between television and interwebs TV; already, much of the entertainment content created for the web is available in our living rooms from the comfort of our couches… and the innovation has just begun. I’ll explore this with some of the industry’s leading minds tomorrow at Streaming Media East.

The advent of a lean-back online video browsing experience with a content selection that rivals cable television is not far off, and its mainstream adoption will mark an inflection point for entertainment production, I think.
