IP TV and tCOMMERCE: 2 New Smart Home Concepts That Will Change How We Watch TV

September 18, 2009 – By John Feilen

Here are two concepts that I believe will change how we watch television and shop while we do it.

1.IP TV
Watching television/movies and consuming media distributed over an IP network…in short TV shows are delivered to the home via an internet connection vs. the traditional cable model but still displayed on your flat screen TV. This will allow us to have more content available and watch it when we want.

Watch a great video on IP TV:

2.tCOMMERCE
As households move to consuming television programming and movies via an IP network, we will also begin to purchase products from our flat screen TVs; or even purchase the shirt we see our favorite sitcom character wear.

See an excellent video example of tCommerce from BNS Touch:
