Explore the implications of attention scarcity for firm structure – I view attention scarcity as a key catalyst driving the unbundling and rebundling of firms that is occurring on a global scale. Master the management techniques required to increase ret

The Intention Economy grows around buyers, not sellers. It leverages the simple fact that buyers are the first source of money, and that they come ready-made. You don't need advertising to make them. The Intention Economy is about markets, not marketing.

long tail businesses disproportionately benefit the aggregator. While they create new opportunities for content providers "down the tail" who might not otherwise have been noticed, they create even greater collective benefits for the Amazon, the Google, t

While each of the main media companies defines digital slightly differently, everyone seems comfortable projecting the same revenue: about half a billion dollars. While there's no doubt each of the networks has grounded that figure in reality, the problem

In a world of not only plenty but the eventual time-shifting – everything will be time-shifted – you’ll be the editor and the master of your own stuff. The single channel, general entertainment approach [isn’t valuable].

First, switching costs into and out of channels are falling. As channels become intrusively commercialised they will simply be discarded in favour of less polluted channels because the switching costs are lower than the costs of trying to use a medium tha

Control the pipe and you've got an economic engine to run ads against your content, charge subscriptions, sell voice calls and charge per minute - the world is your oyster. No pipes, no moguls, no media?

Networks fokussieren nicht mehr auf die Distribution sondern auf Empfehlungen, das Sharing und Weiterleiten. Deshalb braucht es beim Unbundeling neue Erlösformen. Rebundeling heißt mit dem Zuschauern verknüpfen. Sehr Lesenswert!
