Runum's recent success at slaying goliath
, or at least starting the process against the newspaper industry, and the recent closure of certain mags has my wheels turning.
How can we conquer the other 2 major media streams-
Radio- Satellite radio is an attempt, but it has yet to prove profitable (why slay if there is not profit in it) and the entry barrier is high. Internet radio is growing, but when do most common folk listen to their radio? at work and in their cars. work usually frowns on bandwidth being used for internet radio. Cars are not equipped with internet capability.
So what would it take? How can this nut be cracked profitably? From my observation, besides a few superstars, and talk radio, the radio that does well is driven by strong local personalities.
TV- When will we see the breakout Seinfeld of the internet? What would it take to get the internet to that level? I see how to video growing on the web, but entertainment seems to yet find traction. What would it take to crack this one?
This is not just a mental exercise for me, I see this being part of my life in the 3-5 year range.
