Content Insider # 280 - NAB Revisited By Miles Weston
Most meaningful conventions can't be covered in one shot. NAB is certainly no exception, especially this year when the industry is struggling to get people all the content they demand on all the devices they use and still monitize all their investment, their work. It was drama on the screen, on the stage, on the show floor. People are watching more of the content on all of their screens. Doesn't matter if it's available on the huge HD set in the family room they'll watch it somewhere else in the house or watch a different show on their device while they're watching the big screen.

Content Insider 263 - The Home Screen By Miles Weston
We admit it the screens we saw at CES were awesome. The big ones for the family room were better than you could watch at a theater of your choice. Watching the stuff on a tablet, phablet, smartphone was almost as good. In the cocoon environment of the Las Vegas contention centers even Bill Clinton looked good. But then we remembered that the only place that content was available was in movie theaters and then when they put it out on BD media. Sure some could upscale the ordinary content but is it really the same? And when would it be available on all the channels...right up there with 3D. There's more content on line that we want to watch so we'll wait to mortgage the kids for a new ultra ultra HD set. ...Read More »
