The Future of TV

One would think that television would never go out of style as its a form of unwhinning and being able to relax on your couch while watching your favorite shows. With the applications coming forth now in new technology, less people are watching television and are now streaming there new shows on their phones. One example of an app that has taken over television is Netflix. Netflix has the availability of having all of the episodes from each show available to watch. Which is beneficial to those who hate waiting a whole week just to watch one additional episode. One the contrary, it would kill the suspense of those who like waiting a week and guessing that events would happen in the next episode. Another reason why television is going out of style is because a lot of tgw popular channels, such as HBO, have their own apps where you can subscribe to them and watch the shows without having to sit in front of a TV. For a lot of us, this form of watching tv shows works because we have become more addicted to our phones than anything else. Based on the article on The Future of TV isnt Apps , ” imagine each channel was its own app- mayne a dream scenerio for a network hoping to have direct relationship with their viewers.” Many channels wish to be more connected to their viewers on a more personal levels as they will be able to attract more viewers and therefore have a higher rating. The most important reason why app will soon be taking over television is because a lot of consumers cannot afford cable anymore. Cable has become extremely expensive and downloading apps on their phones is much cheaper and much more convenient than paying $150 for a whole bunch of channels one does not even need.
