which is better internet or television?
im deffinately gonna have to with the ol’ internet. because you can watch tv on the internet, plus talk to people accross the world and make your own shows.
This is a loaded question. Remember you are asking a bunch of people who are in front of the computer answering your question instead of watchin Flava of Love or Dirty Jobs right now.
Internet over TV for instant info.
TV over internet for Drama and production values.
That being said, eventually they will be one and the same. With On-Demand services available from cable and DirecTV you are already starting to get the instant access like with internet. TV shows are being rebroadcast over network websites. Apple TV, VUDU and Netflicks are already offering direct movie downloads to watch on the TV through the internet. Further advances like IPTV are being worked out and Media Center PCs are all the rage. Pretty soon you will have advanced GUIs and simple remotes that act as a mouse to access any part of the internet right through your TV(Think Wii nunchucks). PS3 and XBox360 can already do this.
If you don’t think it is all combining just think of all the things your phone can do right now. It is called convergence.
Besides people want to watch together. Everybody sitting around the computer monitor ain’t great. People want their 42-60"+.
internet
