HP at CntrStg: Friday, Jan. 9 at 4 p.m.: Delivering on Digital Entertainment: Industry Report Card.

Believers! How far the promised land?  The promise of connected entertainment is still largely unrealized. Users must choose between viewing content that is either hard coded to a particular device or select one company that might offer a larger selection of devices but  then – BANG!  they’re locked in.  Hey! Monopoly is great if you want to buy Boardwalk, but who really wants to buy from one store and play in a closed garden these days?  How close are the CE and content industries to delivering on the promise of  the “buy once, play anywhere” experience enjoyed with CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray today?  Carlos Montalvo, HP VP Product Experience, leads roundtable members through a spirited discussion on how much further consumer swill have to wander.  Come see what stakeholders need to ace the final with consumers.
