Press Release

Technavio Announces the Publication of its Research Report – Home Entertainment Market in the US 2015-2019

Technavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Home Entertainment Market in the US: Amazon.com Inc., Apple Inc., Comcast Corp., DIRECTV Inc., Dish Network Corp., Google Inc., Hulu LLC, Microsoft Corp. and Netflix Inc.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from Technavio’s team said: “Shift in consumer preferences is one of the key trends being witnessed in this market. A shift in consumer preference to digital home entertainment is reflected in the declining revenue of the physical distribution format and the rapid growth in revenue from the digital distribution format.”

According to the report, the latest generation of home entertainment devices equipped with Wi-Fi, network connectivity, and HDD, enable users to access online stores and download content directly. This eliminates the hassle of visiting a store to purchase physical disks, which are prone to damage by everyday wear and tear.

Further, the report states that piracy, in the form of file sharing, copying, and downloading content from illegal online sources is a major challenge for content providers. This rampant activity is difficult to police and reduces industry revenues, as the market is flooded with counterfeit, pirated, and low-cost content.
