DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - March 25, 2010) - International research firm Parks Associates reports TV Everywhere services are gaining popularity, with over 40% of U.S. broadband households very positive on these services, which will be a prominent topic at the upcoming CONNECTIONS™: The Digital Living Conference and Showcase.
CONNECTIONS™, hosted by Parks Associates on June 8-10 at the Santa Clara Convention Center, includes multiple sessions on New Media and Digital Content:
TV Everywhere and Online Video
Mobile Internet and Cloud Services
Trends in User Interfaces
TV and Online Video Advertising Metrics
DRM, Conditional Access, and Payment Models
"Service providers can use TV Everywhere services to supplement their VOD and interactive services and ameliorate the risk of video cord-cutters," said Kurt Scherf, VP, Principal Analyst, Parks Associates. "The challenge is in building revenues from these services. Only 16% of broadband consumers are willing to pay an additional $5 per month for this service. At CONNECTIONS™, we will discuss the different pricing and business strategies to get the most out of such offerings as well as the impact of new entrants such as Google TV."
CONNECTIONS™ will also feature Scott Birnbaum, VP, Samsung LCD Group, delivering the keynote presentation "TV Technology in the New Age of Consumer Buying."
