I think commoditazion in the media industry is caused by media companies adopting an ad-based internet business model. I think the media companies need to shift to a more content driven business strategy, where access to content is paid for by the consumer. Content should not be fully subsidized by ad revenue.It needs to stand on its own. Music and Movies still follow the approach where content pays for itself. Newspaper media adopted the ad based internet model and have been commoditized.
