Did you know that you can finally stream online content, like movies or you tube videos to your large screen TV without using a computer or having to buy some special box designed to do this? The internet TVs are out now and a brand new line of Blu-ray players which will do this for you as long while you have a broadband fast connection.
You can find about 20 TVs selling for around $1000 and a half dozen Blu-ray players for around $150 that may stream online movies. All the newer TVs hitting the market will soon have the internet streaming feature and may be coming out sometime this year. And some tech people predict that all the newer Blu-ray players shall have it on all their models. They will include this feature on the lower priced models too.
You can find other electronic devices like the popular game boxes in the marketplace that also have internet streaming features.
While one of these TVs or Blu-ray players don’t provide a full internet browser that may go anywhere on the net, it’s going to enable the streaming of movies and television programs from several online companies. You can watch videos from YouTube, news, sports, and more from Yahoo and watch movie; click through the next website, some digital photos stored at selected websites or enjoy music from internet radio stations. Of-course movies and tv episodes will charge for a subscription or could be pay per view.
Streaming video is easy to setup for use on either the television or Blu-ray player. Most services will give a great quality picture but do not expect it to equal an HD Blu-ray disc.
When you are looking to upgrade your DVD player to a Blu-ray player consider among the internet capable models or one that comes in a home theater bundle. The DVD players will get the exact same internet content as the TVs do. The benefit of going it this way is you’re able to tweak or adjust the TVs settings from receiving the content from a DVD player.
When acquiring a Blu-ray player for internet content look for a BD-live model. These models require a broadband connection but some also come with wi-fi which you can tap off your houses wi-fi signal. It’s worth the extra money if you’re able to go this way and also you do not have a broadband cable connection where your entertainment system is setup.
Be also aware that each brand of TV or Blu-ray player has partnered with a certain streaming service. Your content will change, so look for the services you’d like to have and then buy the player that carries them.
As soon as you hook up your TV or Blu-ray player to your network you’ll use your remote to to get to your apps. You’ll see some icons or widgets appear at the bottom of your screen. This really is much like widgets or icons on your computer but will be for the services that came with your device.
You will have thousands of movies at your fingertips. You may browse a library and order with just a couple of clicks. Fees vary but are pretty much the same as driving to your local video store. And no late fees! Some services give a monthly fee, others with unlimited services.
Picture quality could be like standard definition and high def streams will be more like DVD quality. As the equipment hits the market increasingly more we may also expect the services to improve within the not too distant future.
