Devices

Generally referred to as an end-user appliance, a device can take the form of a mobile handset, a set-top box, or a myriad of other products. Laptop and desktop computers are sometimes called devices, but often only in the context of a specific type of media delivery. The explosive growth of mobile devices in the past decade has led to a marked shift in the way streaming media is delivered.
