‘The Death of Print? Not Yet’

Details from an MIT Technology Review blog. “…for 100 years print advertisers subsidized print magazines and newspapers. Readers got a very expensive product for almost nothing. That’s going to change. Publishers will receive the larger portion of their advertising revenues from online. Print will be supported by subscriptions: if readers want a print product, they’ll have to pay for it. To spell it out: all this will mean more online publishing, and less print publications. And in the mid-to-longer term, the advantages of print will go away completely except for the nostalgic.”
