We are long removed from the days of one TV per household, bulky box sets that often doubled as living room furniture. Now, Americans are clamoring for more content and choices, and the ability to view videos whether home or on the go on the platform of their choosing,” said Upton and Walden. “This white paper asks important questions that will inform the #CommActUpdate http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=clickenid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTQxMjEwLjM5MjA2MjExJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE0MTIxMC4zOTIwNjIxMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDE0ODY1JmVtYWlsaWQ9Y21pY2hhZWxAaXRoYWNhLmVkdSZ1c2VyaWQ9Y21pY2hhZWxAaXRoYWNhLmVkdSZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm102http://energycommerce.house.gov/commactupdate process about these ever-changing dynamics.
