DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - September 13, 2010) -  Parks Associates' Senior Research Analyst Brett Sappington will present recent research findings on the new ways consumers are viewing video content, including connected TVs, game consoles, OTT set-top boxes, and TV Everywhere and other service provider initiatives.

EMA's Digital Media Pipeline is a one-day conference focusing on the business-to-business issues in the delivery of digital entertainment. The conference will take place September 15-16, 2010, in Los Angeles, California.

Worldwide sales of connected TVs will exceed 30 million in 2010, constituting about one-fourth of all HDTV sales. These devices, combined with the proliferation of pay-TV and online services, will help drive consumption of video content, which via the network will reach a variety of connected and mobile devices in the home. In the U.S. alone, revenues from pay-TV and online VoD, combined with interactive video advertising revenues, will grow from $8.5 billion in 2010 to almost $30 billion in 2014.
