Death of Cable TV

 

 

 

As the years go by, more and more hardships are created for cable TV providers. The ongoing trend of streaming everything you watch is a revolution. Products such as Roku, and services such as Hulu Plus, HBO GO, and many more have proven to be more efficient and cost effective compared to cable TV. As shown on the graph below, more and more people are unsubscribing to cable TV.

The only issue there was with streaming through your laptop was the cables needed to establish a connection between the laptop/computer and the TV and sound system. Apple came up AppleTV, but not everyone in the world uses apple products. The next big thing is Google’s ChromeCast.

ChromeCast is a wireless HDMI streaming device that can work with any device which has the Google Chrome web browser, and a few certain apps like YouTube. I think this is going to change how the world will watch TV. This device also gets rid of extra clutter (DVR,’ShowBox’) at your entertainment hub.
