THE FUTURE OF TELEVISION
1 _____
Television has changed a lot since the
days when there were only two or three
channels to choose from. People were
happy with that because there was
nothing else but, with the introduction of
videos and later, the Internet, television
needed to offer something better. At
first, this was done by satellite or cable
companies offering hundreds of
channels for a monthly fee.
Unfortunately, many of these were poorly
made and often more time was spent
changing channels trying to find
something interesting to watch than
actually watching something.
2 _____
So, what does the future hold for
television? Firstly, more and more people
are now buying smart TVs which are
linked to the Internet. This will allow a
number of new ideas to be introduced.
One idea is for the television to
remember what you have watched and,
when you next switch on, it will tell you
about programmes that you might be
interested in. We will also be able to link
our televisions to our friends’ televisions
and find out what they are watching so we
can watch the same.
3 _____
This idea, though, still assumes that
television will work as it does now, with
programmes appearing at a certain time
each week. Many companies offer a
catch-up service where you can watch
programmes from the previous week that
you have missed but do we need to miss
programmes at all? There are now online
television providers who allow you to
watch what you like, when you like. You
can watch a whole series in one night.

This is great for people who hate waiting _______________________________

to find out what is going to happen next.
4 _____
A big advantage of not having specific
times for programmes is that no-one can
complain that ‘there’s nothing worth
watching this evening’. Just because
some of the programmes aren’t for you, it
doesn’t prevent you from watching what
you want. This means that television
companies can show programmes for
everyone, from popular series to
documentaries that only a handful of
people will be interested in. So, there will
always be something to watch, whoever
you are.
5 _____
One big problem faced by all television
channels is the rise of so many free video
channels on the Internet. Why should
people pay to watch television when
they can spend their evenings watching
almost anything for free? This means
that, if the service is too expensive, no-
one will sign up for it. Of course, if it is
too cheap, the company won’t be able to
afford to buy or make enough
programmes. It is, perhaps, a bigger
problem for television companies than
keeping up with the latest technological
advances.
