They are evolving the capability to be used by the cable and TV entertainment industry to deliver Internet services. The cloud represents the preferred Internet delivery model so that services from bundled channels and the Internet can be accessed from one single remote TV selector."
New types of entertainment and sports oriented services are coming into the home. Bundled channel video is being extended as people achieve Internet access capabilities over the HD TV. Enhancements to the current bundled channels promise significant growth to the cable industry. The ability to enhance channel access with HD TV Internet access promises to have broad appeal.

Set top boxes support bundled video channel services delivery. Bundling continues to have widespread appeal as a way to fund the creation of video entertainment that has broad appeal. Next generation set top boxes and home IP gateway devices offer significant IP based functionality to the home.
Set top boxes are useful particularly in the US where there is widespread adoption of the cable TV services delivery. With the cable video business model spreading worldwide bundled programming is anticipated to continue to have appeal. Markets are poised for significant growth. Video content is proliferating.
The channel offerings bring compelling content that can only be produced under the current business model. They provide a valuable connectivity between the cable services provider content and the home HD TV. While it is nice to think that everyone will pay for a media player or media gateway that offers more functions, in truth, the separate set top box is functional, low cost, and performs a valuable services delivery vehicle.
At the high end, set top box markets are migrating in part to next generation solutions with an integrated multimedia device offering entertainment to the entire home. A cloud model is different. The cloud is very appealing and being implemented by several services providers, assuring continued proliferation of set top boxes for a long time to come.
Bundled channels of video have been a compelling business model replacing broadcast TV free channels with bundles of paid channel packages. This bundled programming model is anticipated to continue to thrive as Internet services are added to the TV set.
Video communication is increasing in importance. Video content is replacing voice, data, text, and print media in many instances. Educational video is evolving a more significant place in the teaching of students. News video is proliferating. Video is being used to accomplish remote healthcare services delivery. These uses of video over the Internet will leverage HD TV devices, complementing the current bundled entertainment programming business model.
Set top boxes will last for a long, long time with the addition of Internet access capability. The issue is whether bringing Internet protocol (IP) to the set top box will destroy the proprietary bundling of channels for TV. The value of bundling is likely to create persistence of the cable industry business model as it exists now.
Bringing IP to the TV set is not significantly different than having the Intent available on the PC or cell phone. IP TV brings more content, particularly health services as new content, but it is not anticipated to disrupt the existing bundled channel services entertainment and sports model that cable providers bring now.
Set top box dedicated device markets at $8.7 billion in 2011 are anticipated to reach $15.6 billion by 2018 as next generation gateways and cloud computing are introduced to manage Internet connectivity to HD TV devices in the home.
