Latest technology puts internet video on your TV screen.

A wave of new technologies that link home computers to televisions could threaten traditional TV distribution methods as consumer interest in online video entertainment continues to grow.

At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week, electronics manufacturers from Sony to start-ups such as Sling Media unveiled a raft of new products to allow consumers to play internet videos or media files stored on PCs on their TV screens.

Bridging that PC-to-TV gap would open up distribution potential for media content providers, but would challenge traditional distribution channels and strategies, such as cable TV's video on demand services.
