Why The Internet Will Not Kill TV?

If we are asked to choose three inventions that change our daily life, television must be on most people's list. Though it is said that we've already entered the internet era and most of us think that TV is now leaving us slowly from our daily life, data from a report said that internet does not kill TV till now and many internet company is going to enter the TV field. That is why many big internet companies want to make their own TV. Like the report said that Apple and Google will release their smart TV soon. It looks like that they all want to take a share from the TV customer groups and the huge advertise fee. We always think that with people lower their frequency of watching TV, the advertise resources from TV will go to that internet, such as Facebook, Google and Apple. This is according to the rule that Dollars is follows the eyes. However, the data does not support people's guess. Let us see a report from Bernstein.


First of all, we can see that although people are leaving the TV, the advertise fee is still rising.


Secondly, internet advertise cost is now increasing, but the spending from TV advertise is also higher than before and the increase of internet does not surpass the TV's. When other traditional media's advertise spending are decreasing seriously, but the decrease cost does not equal to increase of the internet.


So how does people spend their time? According the report that, people spend 2 billion hours per 3 months on Netflix. Does it mean that people shorten their time on TV? The answer is not. From the total hours that people spend on watching, people spend on TV is increasing. On the opposite, Netflix, Amazon and iTunes take the time away from people spend on DVD Movies. Of course, this is changing, especially when those internet big companies break the monopolization of the cable television. While this is a really difficult process, those big ones in cable television will not disappear in short time and they will still play a important role in people's daily life and advertise field.


Of course we should also see that, with the internet get into our daily life more and more, TV maybe not disappear anyway. However, it will not play the role that television in the past decades, which is the most important way people get news and take amusement on it. With the Google and Apple's join, the rule "Dollars will follow the eye" will still work. The money will also go to the television big ones' pocket. The TV field will still be the goal that big companies want to control. Internet will not hurt TV market, however, it will give it a second boom.

Apple has cast olive to the Android camp by Opening patent authorization

Thanks for develivering this article, which is dedicated to developing programs for iOS iPad Converter, Android and Windows Platform Total Video Converter

In March 7th, Apple and Mobile Equipment Manufacturers in a multi-line kicked off the patent war, which requires the ban, prohibit the sale of its products. However, according to sources, Apple would like to reduce litigation with its competitors.

Some sources leaked info, Apple has submitted a motion to to Motorola, Samsung mobile trying to reconcilize some pending litigation, and the condition is the rivals get Apple's patent licensing and Cover version costs.

It was not a new strategy, according to a recent lawsuit according to court documents, in proceedings before the start, Apple has been associated with Samsung and other business negotiations.

A person familiar with the matter disclosed, the apple is not intended to license to all competitors, and Apple is not willing to establish a copyright business.

However, some sources said, apple considered to solve problems by law that causes more questions. Before, for the Android system, apple in legal proceedings have wins and also failures . Apple did not directly sued Google, but aimed at manufacturers, while manufacturers used their patent to fight against apple.

One source said, thus there is a reason for apple, Android will not be driven out of the market with the rapid growth through the ban, and it is not practical. Authorization is an alternative, which can increase Android development cost, making the system less attractive to manufacturers.

An informed source said, in a negotiation, for some patents, apple opponent pays each 5-15 dollars, accounting for about equipment net sales of 1-2.5%. Before, Motorola mobile requires apple to pay each device 2.25% patent fee.

No one source can determine the settlement negotiations are ongoing, but they say it is part of the process.

Apple founder Jobs died in October, the new strategy is out of step with Jobs's. In Jobs's biography, he claimed that he would rather run apple's every penny to fight against competitors to the end.

Apple has cash more than rivals, so there is no need to seek to empower the revenue. It looks like that apple is more willing to adhere to the legal battle, preventing opponents from product sales, or forcing competitors to modify product design, so that not to infringe the apple for patent.

In a number of lawsuits, Apple has said it has tried its best to stop the proceedings. Last year, apple told the Australian court, in the summer of 2010 Jobs and Samsung have negotiated, because both have the close relation. But in the Samsung released the first Android plate, the negotiations were brokendown.

Apple's legal opponents think, apple rather stubborn, is willing to. Involvement of Motorola, apple lawsuit two insider said, the German court had asked apple to submit many motion, the motion and obtained patents for motorola. Finally the court finds a suitable, before about 10 was rejected.

Apple's legal opponents think apple is rather stubborn, which is not willing to reconcilize. Two insiders involved of Motorola and apple lawsuit said, the German court had asked apple to submit many motions, the motions are about obtaining patents for motorola. Finally the court finds one suitable, and before, about 10 were rejected.

There exists big risks, for example, apple depends on Samsung manufacturing part of mobile devices, including a processor, a memory chip.

Message personage says, even if Apple wins the ban, which can ban a single product. It won't let apple in the legal battle off hands, because competitors have more different products for sale. With difference between opponents, Apple's sales mainly rely on the iPhone and iPad, any ban the opponent wins will cause more harm to Apple.

In addition, adopting the current strategy, how much advantage apple at the legal level can get is still difficult to assess. In the lawsuit, apple mainly through small patent prosecute opponents, and these patents related to the specific functions of products. For example, Softwares that can detect useful information, such as messages in the mobile phone number. Many of these functions can be removed, or modified, even if the court under the ban still can bypass continue to sell.

Unlike apple, apple's competitors have broader patents, these patents are considered the key of manufacturing a wireless communication device. Apple is angry to this, thinking that the opponent cannot use these patent application for an injunction.

However, the defenders can often use these patents successfully obtain a patent fee. Therefore, there is a possibility, that Apple made use of its patented as leverage to consultate, thus reducing the possibility of payment of patent fees" key".
