24. Peter Hirshberg: The Web and TV, a sibling rivalry
Peter Hirshberg: The Web and TV, a sibling rivalry (31:39)
by Peter Hirshberg at the TED Conference
Jan 24th 2009
When I was younger having TV with cable was the thing that made you cool. Being able to watch all cable series, put shows on DV-R for later viewing and watch all your favorite movies on demand. Now we are learning that many people are cancelling their cable prescriptions and putting that money towards faster cable viewing and state of the art computer systems. Who needs computers any more that we have PDA’s and smart phones that are capable of doing the same thing– creation of a community of isolation and exclusion??
