HDTV- High Definition Television

Meer over het boek

The paper explores the phenomenon of technologies that experience cycles of decline and resurgence, with a focus on High Definition Television (HDTV). It challenges the notion that emerging technologies either succeed or fail based solely on consumer demand and industry capabilities. Instead, it highlights how certain technologies, like HDTV, can be declared obsolete by critics yet later regain prominence, illustrating the unpredictable nature of technological adoption and the evolving landscape of telecommunications.
