My article on how to bring online streaming video into your living room ran today at Forbes.com.

The Internet-enabled TVs from LG and Vizio are the most enticing things on the horizon, I think. I’ve been using the MediaMall’s PlayOn software with my PS3, and it’s been pretty great (if a little buggy). Having Hulu, YouTube, and Amazon VOD available right on my HDTV has really enhanced the viewing experience. Lots of fresh, on-demand content to keep me entertained. I think this could be very bad news for cable providers insisting on high fees for bloated channel packages.
