And when you see something that’s merely reacting to new technology in an attempt to preserve some existing source of revenue, you’re probably looking at a loser”.

    “Facebook killed TV. That is wildly oversimplified, of course, but probably as close to the truth as you can get in three words”

    “Inevitably, the people running the networks will take the easy route and try to keep the old model running for a couple more years, just as the record labels have done”

    +

    “But on the question of what sort of entertainment gets distributed on the Internet in 20 years, I wouldn’t dare to make any predictions, except that things will change a lot. We’ll get whatever the most imaginative people can cook up. That’s why the Internet won”
