The Media Industry in the Digital Age - Change or Die!:
http://www.musicdish.com/mag/?id=4172
The Internet in particular has made an impression on the critics
of the "New Economy." What they always described as "hype" or
complementary media side-effects now seems - in view of the many
business failures, sackings (in the media world especially: e.g.
Disney, News Corporation, CNN) and "temporary restraining orders"
against "copyright cavaliers" like Napster - to be becoming a sad
reality. Is the Internet in all its facets really only a "useful
supplementary medium" for media firms? Will the new competitors
present no threat to the established business? Is there no need
to adapt the media business models?
