TPN coverage includes four video elements:

Live Stream: TPN will stream live from its broadcast booth during open show hours interviewing four to six high profile guests each hour. The stream will be simulcast on multiple TPN partner sites as well as rebroadcast after hours.

TPN Pick of the Day (TPOD): Each day, TPN will host a special wrap-up show covering five to seven product or demo highlights. Only the most interesting products of the day are featured. The four 2010 TPOD videos averaged 155,000 views each within 72 hours of release.

Product Videos: TPN show hosts will also produce on average 140 product interviews from the show floor and at evening "Press Only" events. The product videos are then professionally post-produced and released after the show.

Backchannel Videos: Backchannel videos show the process TPN goes through to plan and execute the event. Backchannel videos highlight the hard work, boredom, excitement, challenge, aggravation, frustration and exhaustion faced by the team. In 2010 TPN released nearly 40 hours of unedited backchannel content.

In 2010, TPN established additional viewing and listing options as a top-tier channel on the Roku set-top box. It has similar placement on Boxee's directory and is creating apps for other platforms such as VuDu and Samsung.

A limited number of Live Channel, Product Video and Backchannel sponsorships are still available, providing an opportunity for companies to have their product or service message integrated into the TPN coverage.

Hundreds of thousands of consumers eager to see the new tech toys and trends setting the pace in 2011 will follow TPN's coverage of CES, returning for authentic insight into products, and foresights that they have come to trust.
