More consumers will tune in to Internet movie services
Parks Associates released a forecast today
predicting significant growth in Internet-based video services over the
next four years, with users exceeding 15 million by the end of 2008. The
firm will present these data, part of its ongoing research of multimedia
platforms and services, at its upcoming one-day workshop
Digital
Entertainment in the Networked Home on July
15, 2004, at The Fairmont in San Jose, CA.
“Regarding on-demand video services, several
key pieces of the puzzle are now in place,” said Puja Rathi,
an analyst at Parks Associates. “Broadband penetration is sufficiently
high, and with the launch of service providers like MovieLink and Starz!
Ticket, movies are legally available in on-demand environments. The only
missing piece is a wireless connection between TVs and PCs, and this
should be available within the next 12 months, thanks to new products
coming to market.”
Also at the workshop, Parks Associates’ analysts will
present industry analysis and consumer research regarding other markets,
including broadband, gaming, music, and media servers, within the digital
home value chain. Additionally, Parks
Associates will be publishing a report on video-on-demand services,
Video-on-Demand
and PVR: Analysis & Forecasts, in July 2004. For more information
