Vision Shopsters: The Future of Digital Home Entertainment: Key trends and drivers shaping devices, content and services

Despite the economic slowdown of recent years, digital home entertainment looks set to evolve and grow significantly over the next five years. The convergence of technologies and platforms, lifestyle trends, a growing need for mobility, and technological advances are all combining to fundamentally change the ways in which consumers interact with digital content. In turn, these trends and ‘meta-themes’ are forcing broadcasters, media agencies and conglomerates, service providers, device and consumer electronics manufacturers, and communications operators to rethink the value chain and restructure their business models. In the future digital home, content will be king, and consumers will expect to be able to access synchronized content and digital content libraries instantaneously on a range of connected devices, in a variety of locations.
The consumption of digital entertainment content is being driven by the rapid transition to online and mobile platforms, on which consumers of tomorrow will expect the ability to watch broadcast TV, access video content on-demand, personalize Internet radio stations to suit their own preferences, play games, and store media collections, whether inside or outside the home – this concept of the ‘porous home’ will be a defining feature of the future of digital home entertainment. This report analyzes the trends, technologies and business models of the enablers and providers of digital content. Furthermore, it defines six ‘Meta-themes’ that can be used as a template for defining and considering the future shape and growth of the digital home entertainment market. These six meta-themes are then applied to each of three main digital home entertainment markets: TV and video; Music and audio content; and Gaming.
