[QUOTE="kosko, post: 1113185, member: 2143"] Coincidently enough, yes, this was always the intended outcome for Big Media/MSM in the first place. In the late 90s with the massive mergers, the intention was always to create a massive mono-or-dual-opoly where 1-3 major players would control all media and equal split the profits. The eventual outcome of that is that rivals never play nice, and the eventual merger of the big players into one massive media corporation. The Govt has tried to meddle half-heartedly, though currently, we more or less have 3 massive Media companies (TimeWarner, Comcast, Disney). What may likely happen is further consolidation by the MSM Corps with the eventual poaching of them by Google, Amazon, Apple where we would see the eventual control of all media both digital and non-digital by these massive digital companies with data and info on billions of people where now you will be force fed tailored information and media based completely on your habits and preferences to influence everything you do to the benefit of advertisers.
