Customer Reviews

An interesting and informative book

Broadband Entertainment is an excellent book. It gives a thorough explanation of both the trends in home entertainment and the digital technology that is making them possible. It is written in a very interesting style and covers material ranging from the generations of entertainment and distribution technology to the politics of broadband access and digital rights management. There are also a lot of interesting tidbits about some of the technical details, such as audio and video coding, capacity of storage technologies, etc. This book is worth the price for its large, informative, full-color illustrations alone.

Excellent reference, very timely and packed with information

I found this book to be extremely packed with many of the details that flood the digital entertainment and gaming world. It is a very useful reference as well as an extremely easy read that itself entertained me while providing clarification on many aspects of the confusing technology in the broadband world. This book can save you literally hundreds of hours that you would spend trying to find this kind of information online and in reference books. It ties all of this together into a comprehensive whole that is very accurate and on the mark.
