"Sell to whom exactly?" And buy what? I agree with Marc's core premise -- monolithic media is going down -- and I suspect that diversification is the answer.

"Sell to whom exactly?"
And buy what? I agree with Marc's core premise -- monolithic media is going down -- and I suspect that diversification is the answer. But there doesn't seem to be clear information on where the media markets are headed. Stuff like Hulu and iTunes offer up some clues, but not enough to bet a billion dollar empire on...
- ojbyrne 18y agoIn my opinion the problems old media have is that they're tied to existing cost structures - too many employees, too many buildings, machinery,... while new media is busy accumulating all those same things in order to gain credibility, reliability, and scale and to look like real businesses. What's going to happen is that old media will shed those old costs and new media will grow and accumulate new costs until it is no longer possible to tell the difference between them.
