Connecting the Cloud With the Crowd “By 2020 everything will have moved into the cloud: content, media, health records, education. Connecting the cloud with the crowd will become a huge business. Related to this, access will replace ownership in almost all forms of media. Future media ‘consumers’ will simply have music, films, TV shows, games, etc. in the cloud, paid ‘with attention,’ i.e., advertising and data mining (Facebook cloud), subscription (Apple new iTV), and bundles (i.e., with mobile operators). Most importantly, many consumers will not pay for ‘content’ per se, but for all the added values around the content, such as curation, packaging, design, social connections, interfaces, apps, etc. Finally, all media that is not social and mobile will shrink; all that combines with their current models will prosper.” (via MediaFuturist: My contribution to Mashable’s 9 Bold Predictions for the Digital World of 2020)
