Ballmer on the future of media: “…there will be no media consumption left in 10 years that is not delivered over an IP network. There will be no newspapers, no magazines that are delivered in paper form. Everything gets delivered in an electronic form.”
I enjoy broad sweeping proclamations of the future. But 10 years? Yes, the digitization of everything continues to plod forward. But the impact of those changes are hit and miss. Even now, countries in developing regions of the world are still grappling with consistent electricity access. Ballmer’s prediction, while interesting, are not likely to be experienced outside of small pockets/regions.
Future of media?
