The Future of Media #81 Get Out Your Crystal Ball



1. For all the developments listed above, I think the Internet will redefine
culture in the future. The Internet and World Wide Web will be the most
important technology that influence our daily life.
Compared to other technology; broadcast, cable and satellite, the cost of
the internet is going down and the cost for those three are going up.
By the way,the Internet is faster and cheaper.

The merger of Comcast and NBC is the consolidation of Video and Broadband.
I think the Internet/Television combination will be the major trends shaping
the Media Industry.

2. I am not an early adopter of every technology gadget. But I do appreciated
the new inventions that enrich our daily life, such as Personal Computer,
World Wide Web, Video Game, Digital Music, Digital Video recorder, Computer
Animation, Music Synthesizer and Remove Control etc.

My favorite media gidget is Region-Free DVD Player, since DVDs are coded
to a region of the World . It breaks down to 10 Regions (0-9).
So, here in the US, we're Region 1 , In the UK, DVDs are Region 2, DVDs
won't play in Region 1 players and vice versa.
The Region-free DVD Player enable users to view any DVD from anywhere in
the world.
Both BestBuy and Sears carry inexpensive Region-Free DVD Player,and the Players
work very well. I am able to watch the shows, performance and films from
Asia, Europe and elsewhere.
I recommended it wholeheartly to everyone.
