Tablets and mobile TV supplant for watching videos

According to a global study by the firm Accenture, consumers are less willing to buy a TV. They prefer mobile devices.

While it is no question that consumers continue to buy televisions, their preferences are changing, "says Jean-Laurent Poitou, responsible for strategy and development of high-tech sector within Accenture.
