Casual gaming is a big growth area, especially in the social media and mobile media realms. AirPlay is on the absolute leading edge of that growth area, capitalizing on trends in pop culture and sports fandom by tying together your mobile phone or computing device with your television viewing experience - an unconventional but truly genius method of convergence.

As the former President of TiVo, he was able to provide some really unique insight to the conversation.
