It's about S$1299 for a 32" LCD TV. This translates to less than US$1,000.

So TV gets/creates 630 million "viewer hours" (hours of video viewed) per day. And that doesn't count DVD "viewer hours", etc. YouTube now claims to get/create 100 million downloads per day. Let's be generous and only minimally discount failed downloads and aborted viewings and the like, and say the average download is good for 2.5 viewer minutes (minutes of video viewed.) So YouTube gets/creates 4.2 million "viewer hours" per day. And let's again be very generous and assume YouTube is only 10% of web/IPTV/podcast/etc video viewing at this point, and so assume that web video gets/creates 42 million "viewer hours" per day -- or only 6.7% the delivery of conventional TV (again not even including DVDs etc). Exciting? Hell yeah. But an "exploding revolution"? Hmmm. Let’s see: essentially 100% of the 105 million USA homes have television, which is viewed, on average, what, 6 hours a day?

Wel, hier wat cijfers van een nieuw onderzoek: bijna veertig procent van alle internetgebruikers kijkt video’s op internet.

Content on the web is better than content on the TV a lot of the time, if you look past the clip-swarm. And Apple's initiative.... why bother. IPTV services give you better functionality.
