28 EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES IN THE VIDEO WORLD
Part 1d:

29 New Ways of Accessing Video Content
Technological advancements over the past ten years have given rise to a variety of new platforms for consumers to receive and view video programming, including video-on-demand (VOD), personal video recorders (PVRs), Internet streaming and Internet downloading. These new platforms and technologies have affected the video opportunities available to Canadians in three key ways. First, they significantly expanded where consumers can receive and watch video programming. Second, all of these new platforms, with the exception of some forms of Internet streaming, can be characterized as on-demand services which free viewers from the rigidity of program schedules. Third, some new platforms provide video in a significantly different format from traditional television.

30 More video programming available over more distribution platforms

47 EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES IN
THE AUDIO WORLD Part 2d:

48 New Ways of Accessing Audio Content
Over the past decade, numerous new ways of accessing audio content have become available in Canada, including digital radio, pay audio, satellite radio, Internet streaming, podcasting and Internet downloading of music. As with new video platforms, these new audio platforms provide consumers with increased choice in terms of where and how audio services can be received, increased diversity in the type of content that is available and greater flexibility and control over when content is accessed and listened to. The new audio platforms have met with varying degrees of acceptance by the public and while the final verdict is still out on most of them, they have increased audience fragmentation and are forcing audio broadcasters to be both more thoughtful and more innovative when developing audio content and when deciding the best means to deliver it to Canadians.
