The digital living room is a key battlefield for service providers, device vendors, and content creators. Where services were once limited to dedicated set top boxes (STB), nearly any device can be a delivery mechanism for streaming Internet services. Current Analysis provides insights into the constantly shifting competitive balance in these categories, the companies, their strategies, and the devices themselves.
Current Analysis’ Digital Home Devices coverage area includes set-top boxes (STB), DVRs, video game consoles, media hubs and NAS solutions, and a host of new devices with integrated streaming media functionality such as HDTVs, A/V receivers, Blu-ray players, and even digital picture frames. PC’s are not covered as a separate category, but are reviewed when sold specifically for consumer service use. As these devices converge and evolve, Current Analysis will evaluate the actions of companies attempting to deliver video, voice and data services to consumers into the home.
