Abstract

In-Stat completed a survey in February 2006 with broadband users to determine interest levels, and current use of, various digital home client devices and home networking applications. Although media networking is growing, many owners of Media Center PCs, or PCs with TV tuners, are still not using them for recording TV broadcasts. Analysis shows that many of these owners are not recording on those devices because they also own a Personal Video Recorder or Digital Video Recorder. As users become more familiar with media center functions, the percentage of those recording with them should grow; however, this growth may be limited if these owners continue to also add PVRs/DVRs to their digital homes. It remains to be seen how many consumers who own both, PC with TV tuner and PVR/DVR, will record regularly with both devices. We gauged ownership, familiarity, use, and interest in many areas, with comparisons between broadband users with and without a home network, and those planning to install one, such as: Digital Entertainment Devices Used, PC Ownership & PC Backup Behavior, Buying Channels, Broadband Sharing Only vs. Multi-Use Home Networks, Network Equipment & Client Devices, Interest CE Devices with WLAN Connection, Home Network Management & Setup Software, Home Network Support Services, Audio & Video Media Use with Home Network & Usage Habits with Media Center PCs & PCs with TV Tuners.
