There is a whole other post just from the Q&A session, which covered what all this might mean for local media especially. DRM came up too (including Apple's about-face on DRM). Anyway, you've given me the nudge for my next post. Interesting times indeed - the cheese has not so much been moved as teleported to another galaxy (or potentially even vapourised)!

Couldn't agree more about 'value destruction' and also on the hunt for value creation. It might be naive, but it seems the destruction is happening amongst traditional businesses, particularly those involved in gate-keeping, whether it's DRM on music, or charging for access to content (or it's audience in the case of advertising). Yet, the creation is happening around 'free'. So, where's the money coming from? A switch to freemium? What of the old-school content generators? Now more than ever, they seem lost. Funny you should post about this now, the Chinwag LIve we're planning for March is going to look at Freeconomics and the value in the new generation of business models (<a href="http://www.chinwag.com/live/freeconomics" rel="nofollow">http://www.chinwag.com/live/freeconomics</a>) Good material for pondering, benjamin.
