Many of the people that desperately need to know, don't even know that they don't know. Book publishers, confronted by the innovation of technology companies, are in a state of panic. Instead of embracing the new digital reading devices as an exciting opportunity, the default response is to disadvantage authors. Television and cable networks are dumbfounded by the move of younger people to watch TV on their computers or cell-phones. Newspapers and magazine publishers continue to see their advertising model crumble and have no response other than buyouts.
This the new culture trying to replace the old. This is the algorithmic culture; a culture not of prints and paper, but of bytes and bytes of digital codes. It's an inevitable event in history.
I personally have been used to paper and print. But now I find so much more convenience with the internet.
