Think of convergence like this: A few years ago we watched TV in the lounge; maybe listened to radio in a bedroom, your newspaper arrived on the front steps, you talked to friends on the phone, and had a stack of video tapes on the shelf. Everything was neatly separated, not only in your house, but also for businesses and the government rules that applied to them. TV stations, Telcos, newspapers, the music and film industry all knew where they stood. Things have changed. Now, on a smart TV you can download movies and music, watch catch-up TV or surf the web. I actually bought a smart TV recently and the choice of content is quite remarkable. You can also do all this on your mobile phone. This is convergence: everything is available on a single device.
