David shares his thoughts on the current state of the market including the increasing number of production builders embracing home technology, as well Lutron's continued success serving the luxury integrator.
That plus... Apple's homebuilder partnerships aim to cement HomeKit's place in the mid-market. Our thoughts on the potential ATT / Time Warner acquisition. DirecTV unveils some details on their forthcoming streaming service. Confirmation (if you needed it) that distributing 4K video is hard.
