The Internet challenge to television
by Bruce M. Owen
- 1 Want to read
After a half-century of glacial creep, television technology has begun to change at the same dizzying pace as computer software. What this will mean - for television, for computers, and for the popular culture where these video media reign supreme - is the subject of this timely book. Noted communications economist Bruce M. Owen supplies the essential background: a grasp of the economic history of the television industry and of the effects of technology and government regulation on its organization.
He also explores recent developments associated with the growth of the Internet. With this history as a basis, his book allows readers to peer into the future - at the likely effects of television and the Internet on each other, for instance, and at the possibility of a convergence of the TV set, computer, and telephone.
