Content: Now “officially” free
I have long believed that it would become increasingly difficult to charge for content and there was only direction in which this was headed: all content (well, almost) becoming “officially” free.
Two recent developments look like nails being driven into the coffin of paid-for content:
1. Beta testing begins for Hulu and
2. How Radiohead killed the record labels
Many of you must have also read about Prince’s giveaway and FT’s about-turn
…and at least some of you would find this interesting: Why Newspapers Are Screwed
Thoughts & comments welcome…as always.
P.S. The alert amongst you must have noticed that I have switched AdSense off – more on that later.
