You can look at other fields like classical music to predict what will happen. They have very high quality content, but the public isn't interested in it. As such, many orchestras are going bankrupt and closing down. It's unfortunate for those of us who like listening to or playing classical music, but that's just life.
There are other high quality music outlets for people to choose and they are choosing them instead. C'est la vie. The same could happen to writing on the web, or something else could happen. You don't know until you run the experiment. But it is possible that people will not be interested enough to either put up with ads or pay per view (in whatever form) for readable content on the web.
- cortesoft 11y agoSure, there are orchestras that are closing down, but there are also a lot that are thriving (mostly in big cities). Are there really a lot of people who want to be able to go to an orchestra performance but are not able to because there isn't enough supply? There is the issue of location (i.e. you have to live in or near a big city to be able to go to an orchestra), but that is a consequence of the physical world (you need to be close to something to visit it, and for niche things like an orchestra, there will only be enough people to support it in a big city). This isn't the case on the internet - if your worldwide market is small, you can still reach them wherever they are.
