There's little doubt that video on demand will be as much a part of the TV technology of choice of the future as HDTV. In fact, online video downloads are expected to grow from a total market of thirty five million dollars in 2006 all the way up to six hundred and fifty one million dollars in 2010.

When it comes to electronic gadgets Apple's iPod pretty much sets the standard these days. When the iPod first appeared in the marketplace it was the major portable digital audio player available. More commonly called MP3 players, the class of device that the iPod falls into were extremely appealing because they appeared at a time then the best way to listen to music while carrying it on one's person was using an audio cassette deck or a portable CD player. In the case of the audio cassette deck (more commonly called a Walkman after Sony's name for its version of the device) this meant carrying a single cassette inside of the device that could only carry about an hour of music. Most audio tapes stored single albums by a specific artist or group and making a mix tape took time, was inconvenient, and could only be played in a fixed order.
