Will people watch TV in the future? The answer, I suspect, is yes but it depends on who you talk to. What does appear to be true is that younger generations have got a huge number of alternative choices targeted to their particular interests. As a result we would expect to see the TV licence in countries like the UK withdrawn and replaced by a computer tax within the next decade or two.
Will people watch TV in the future?
This seems to be the wrong question.
If the question is framed as “Will people watch video on screens” the answer is obvious.
I have not owned a TV for more than a decade but I do watch some program content originally made for broadcast TV. Viewed on my computer, and downloaded via BitTorrent. Am I watching TV?
How the content gets to the screen does not seem to matter too much. But who makes the video content. Why they make it, who pays for it to be made, and how will they recover production costs, seem to be more interesting questions.
