There are numerous examples throughout modern history of disruptive technologies appearing, apparently from nowhere, to displace existing technologies and the industries and vendors that grew up around them. In the consumer technology space, the phenomenal adoption of mobile phones springs quickly to mind, but equally innovations such as the desktop computer, video recorders, the iPod and iTunes, flat-panel TVs, digital/personal video recorders (DVRs/PVRs) and Internet TV have caused – and continue to cause – disruption in markets and shifted the balance of power in entire industries. A number of rapidly evolving trends, technological advances and consumer behaviors are changing the shape of consumer technology markets, and in turn combining to create new consumer technology product classes and markets. As a result, a number of traditional business models are under threat.
