More than 15 percent of all Internet households in the United States have a stereo or TV connected to their home computer, according to Digital Media Adapters and Receivers: Analysis and Forecasts, a new study by Parks Associates of Dallas, Texas. Furthermore, 75 percent of households with these PC/CE connections play music on their PC through a stereo and more than 40 percent have viewed digital photos on their TV.

“Music and imaging applications are much more important than video to these consumers,” says John Barrett, director of research for Parks Associates. “People don't need a computer to watch video on their TV. However, they do need a computer if they want to view digital photos on their TV.”
