The internet and television have been at war with each other since they were both created. It seems that each medium is competing to take the largest share of your time. With TV constantly losing viewers to a new generation of kids who only ever watch videos online, some children today haven’t heard of MTV and didn’t know that music videos existed anywhere other than youtube. So it looks like it’s time for everyone to learn to accept that TV and computers can work together in perfect harmony.
TV is already making the effort to appear online in forms such as Iplayer or 4OD which allow you to watch all your favourite shows for free on the internet, just as you would on TV. Plus, with some basic cables and the right ports your TV could also work as a computer monitor. The luxury of one monitor to watch TV and go on the computer is brilliant both because it is easy and allows you a larger computer screen. If your TV is too old to be able to make this connection, try taking a look at some of the incredible, cheap LCD TVs we have on offer. It’s a far cheaper solution than you think, and it could help you reduce the clutter in your house as well as opening you up to the wonderful world of couch based internet surfing.
The computer and the TV have been fighting for our attention for too long; they’re both supposed to be tools for our entertainment. The consumer is the important factor, so it’s time for them to band together under the increasingly popular name ‘home media’ and that means it’s time for you to upgrade to a superior home media system that’s sure to make your down time that much easier.
