A scary photo (for anyone involved in print media) of slide from a presentation covered at the Print is Dead blog.
I know many think that the claim print is dead is unhelpful and will be proven to be untrue. I am inclined to agree. However, print won’t last as we currently know it. Look at music and the upheaval of the last ten years. Stores like JB HiFi have grown because they and reengineered their business model.
The Print is dead blog is a good read and forces us to get our collective heads out of the sand.
once we would buy a music CD for 4 or 5 songs, now we download those 4 or 5 songs from the net to put on our MP3 players.
will we soon download news stories, at a small fee, to read on our ePaper devices? when we start doing that print will start to deline.
