I believe that the the home TV market is still massive, and there is a significant amount of growth and market share available to whoever ever brings the correct device to the market.
At this moment their is nothing that brings the full package to the TV. PC can be hooked up, but it is not anywhere near as simple as a smartphone. Consoles bring the current games to the TV and the simplicity of a smartphone, but they lack the depth of a smartphone or a pc. Things like smart tv, roku, chromecast, all fall short in some department. Everything leaves something missing requiring more hardware/devices to be hooked up.
If Microsoft and Sony can deliver Live and on demand TV, digital and physical movie and music collections, along with quick and easy access to internet, word processing, email, and more, then they can bring in a whole new market.
There are 160M cable boxes in the US alone. With OTT TV, XBO and PS4 can finally knock one more box off the TV stand. With Windows 10 on XBO along with Kinect, I can see the need for a separate computer becoming very mute for a good number of people, and especially kids who have not grown up with the preconceived idea that computers do work and consoles play games.
Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
