A slight tangent to your post, but I had my own 'ah-ha' moment on new and social media and the struggles 'old' media are facing. I read this economist piece (http://www.economist.com/business/displaystory.cfm?story_id=13446620 ) and thought "but isn't that how TV and many papers work already???" It's always been a 2-sided business model with one side (advertisers) carrying most/all the cost for the other side (subscribers). Then I read this piece in WSJ (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123958338833312319.html ) and realized that media has been evolving for decades, and the internet is only the latest accelerant. best, David Hi Tim.
