Tommy Hilfiger continues to bring music and fashion together with the global launch of TommyTV, an online evolution of the Hilfiger Sessions music series, staged in creative collaboration with Sony BMG Europe, that brings the excitement of live music to audiences around the globe.

TommyTV, which goes live today, builds on the existing success of The Hilfiger Sessions, a series of established and successful music events. The Hilfiger Sessions feature high profile artists playing with new and upcoming talent in intimate gigs in cities around the world, with recent Sessions taking place in Madrid, Berlin and Amsterdam hosted by artists such as Wyclef Jean and Kelly Rowland.

The live recordings of The Hilfiger Sessions form the centrepiece of TommyTV, allowing music fans to enjoy exclusive content and experience the thrill of live musical performances via unprecented online video presentation. TommyTV features:
- Exclusive content from the global Hilfiger Sessions concerts.

- Exclusive artist interviews and backstage footage.

- The chance to discover new music talent or for new artists to be discovered through the Hilfiger Auditions.
Really? Must they do this? I'm all about surfing the web and know I spend far too much time doing just that but I would never dream of watching TommyTV. Sorry.

    Sony is spending $203.5 million into scaling OLED production technology up to medium and large panels.

    In case you're not quite sure what that means, their 27-inch OLED is about as thick as two credit cards stacked together. And if you're still lost then let's talk about what an OLED television really is. OLED is an organic light-emitting diode. Information week reported back in October, "OLED screens have brighter pictures, higher contrast, and better color than seen on today's LCD and plasma screens, analysts say. The reason is the technology uses an organic material that emits light, rather than depending on a backlight like other HDTV technologies."

    Sounds good to me man, but also sounds like it's going to cost a pretty penny. Still, Sony thinks this will be the next big thing, but due to the cost of these sets it probably won't be a big thing for another 20 years.
