Globally, mobile TV buyers are a small population with just 115 million subscribers, according to Screen Digest<\/a>. Compare that to 4.1 billion mobile phone subscriptions worldwide<\/a>, and mobile TV is clearly a tough market<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m not sure that the new devices (pictured) that will offer free over-the-air television delivery of broadcast channels<\/a> to be shown off in a few days at CES, or Qualcomm’s attempts to bring its MediaFLO television service to cars will make a dent in the apathy around mobile television. However, today we learned that Microsoft is looking for someone to help it push its Xbox Live content to Windows Mobile phones<\/a>, and last year AMD showed off a cloud service designed<\/a> to let folks take their games on the run. Comcast could also broaden its Xfinity service<\/a> to allow me to bring my TV shows with me when I leave the house<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I wonder if these efforts from cable providers and content owners to deliver<\/a> users’ content to them through the cloud, regardless of what screen or service they’re using, will drive adoption. Readers, what do you think?<\/p>\n
