We’ve already mentioned how TV is changing rapidly with technology, and how On-Demand TV and services like Netflix are flooding the market. But how can you watch these services? There are several devices that support online video streaming and you might own most of them already.
Most devices like game consoles and smart TVs come equipped with streaming services, which means that video streaming isn’t as expensive as you might have thought! Investing in one or some devices allows you to watch videos at your own pace and convenience.
Games Consoles
Do you remember when the PlayStation 2 was a revolution in games consoles because you could watch DVDs on it? The newer generations of PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox One and Xbox 360 do something similar; you can use them for online video streaming, as they come prepared for services like Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Instant Video.
Games consoles can be the heart and soul of any gamer, especially if it’s how you make a living. Investing in a good quality console allows you to not only play your games, but also connect to the Internet and watch TV. Who said you can’t have the best of both worlds?
Smart TVs and Laptops
Smart TVs come prepared for Netflix; they are usually Internet-enabled and offer Netflix and other online streaming services like Catch Up TV, BBC iPlayer, and YouTube. Alternatively, if you don’t have a Smart TV or if you’re already watching a film or a TV show on your laptop, you can buy an HDMI cable and connect your laptop to your TV. It’s easy and simple to set up, to any TV at anytime.
Smartphones and Tablets
If you already subscribe to Netflix, this service allows you to keep watching your TV shows on your smartphone or tablet. Some Apple, Android, and Windows 7 phone owners only need to search the respective “markets” and find the app to download it. If you’re always “on the go”, this is the perfect solution for you! Smartphones and tablets are more portable and you can easily watch a video on the bus or on the train.
