The Connected Home According to Parks Associates’ report, “Networks in the Home: Connected Consumer Electronics” (2006): • An entertainment network is a PC connected to at least one consumer electronic (CE) device, or multiple interconnected CE devices such as a whole-house DVR system. • There will be 30 million U.S. households with a connected entertainment network by 2010. • Connected entertainment will be the heart of the development and business opportunities in the digital home, and will be driven by video service providers(telco, cable and DBS) and CE and home networking manufacturers.
