Paragraph of the future
The future of technology is going in the direction of more immersive experiences when watching television, less effort when interacting with technology. The way that technology is advancing we'll end up not having to do anything but speaking to the TV. People have been working on new sensor tracking technology for the xbox one, this could lead to having our own fitness coach from the comfort of our own home. Another advancement in Television is the "IllumiRoom" Microsoft have been researching technology that could make watching a film even more immersive watching from your own home than it would be going to the cinema. The reason for this is that they are working on a TV that projects the things on screen all around your living room so it feels like you're in the film. "Don't watch a film, be in it"
Future of television industry
1. Channel 4 is being bought by US industries
2. Rupert Murdock is buying the channels (He is the US media conglomerate)
3. TV is having to compete with other platforms (streaming services) to stay relevant. (They're making their own.)
The future of the television industry is changing. Channel 4 is being bought by US industries, Rupert Murdock is buying the channels. (He's a US media conglomerate.) The impact that this will have on the television industry is that there may be more channels, more channels mean that you may have to pay more to watch TV. Potentially if the US industries buy some UK channels, we could lose a few channels as well. Commercial channels could be affected because the advertisements will change, it could affect the amount of money going towards commercial channels, America could take that money. TV channels are having to compete with other platforms as well (not just US conglomerates trying to buy them) they are trying to stay with the public by making other platforms to watch their content on, for example, Iplayer.

Vertical and horizontal integration
Vertical
They are 'vertically integrated' (if you're talking about what someone is) The real term is 'vertical integration'
Have to be able to own two or three stages of production. You need to be able to make the film and then either distribute it or show it.
Horizontal
When one company owns a range of different companies such as newspapers, book, publishers, online or music companies.
Examples
Walt Disney: Are both. (They own pixar and they also own disney channel so they can make and distribute them. Also they own a bunch of other different companies. So that makes them both)
21st Century fox: Are both (They can make the films themselves and they can also broadcast it on their TV. They also own a bunch of other companies so that makes them both)
Sony: Are both.
