Streaming media…how familiar are you with all of lingo associated with it? Here is a simple test. If you have heard of all these sources of streaming media and know what they do, then you are pretty well-informed. If you only know a couple the you need to copy/paste these words into Google. Lets test your knowledge with some easy ones you might be familiar with right up front:
Everyone should start becoming familiar with these terms because some of these services are already appearing on internet-capable Blu-Ray players and television sets. I have run across so many people who are ditching their cable television for the world of free, streaming, internet content. What could you do with an extra $60 – $100 dollars a month in your pocket, yet still able to get all the television shows and movies you enjoy? All of the services listed above have specific purposes and content. Some provide vast libraries of free, online music. Some give you access to millions of uploaded videos. Additional, some provide access to television and movies online for free. Applications like Boxee, provide beautiful interfaces that bring all of these services together, in one convenient dashboard on your computer or home theater media device. This list is not all encompassing, but I am certainly questioning the need for cable television these days. There are so many channels I never watch, yet I sill pay for them. I do like my live sporting and television events, but I TiVo most of my shows and watch them later on. The funny this is, I can access the very shows I record on TiVo through a variety of ways on the internet for free, when I want to watch them. So, if you have a broadband connection and a DVD/Blu Ray player or television that is internet capable, or have a computer hooked up to your home theater, you may want to explore the landscape of streaming media. YouTube will probably keep you busy until the end of time, but there is alot more out there that may interest you.
