Is the Internet Doomed?
Yes, if principles outlined in this book are not heeded. Strangely, the fundamental economics of copyright intellectual property have been glossed over by many eBusinesses seeking to grab "eyeballs" instead of dollars. No wonder so many "content sites" are failing. The selection of articles in this book is first rate and should be read by anyone in the publishing, music or software businesses. There is some advanced economic analysis with a fair bit of math, but the articles are quite accessible to non-economists like myself. You have just read a review of a book. Is my review "worth" anything? What did it "cost?" Will all books eventually by digital? Read this book to find out.
