Driving home this evening, and stopped at a light. A strange glow permeated from the vehicle in front. I was mesmerized as the soccermobile in front of me illuminated the rear of the cab with Bugs Bunny up on the center console.
Passing by the vehicle, I saw the two children in the back completely taken in with this.
Now without getting into the fact that I disagree with finding more reasons to get your kids to watch television, the reality hit me...
...there is a huge market for families who laid down the coin to put a video entertainment system into their vehicle... what do you play when you're going on these short jaunts?
Cartoons (obviously)
Jetsons, Flintstones, Bugs Bunny, we're going to see a lot of it...
...sitcoms will follow, as will short MTV type music DVDs,
...next we'll probably see those self destructing DVD's released for a song but with no ability to bypass commercials...
The trips to the store won't justify firing up the video entertainment system, but any excursion that is more than say 15 minutes is going to be met with screams from the back of the van demanding you to play something...
...we'll see a lot of weird crap trying to fill this niche.
(my prediction... )
