The Next Big Thing
According to the Little Guy
#4 - Free Media
Ever since Cable TV came along (and even more since the internet), no one wants to pay for entertainment in their home. In the future, entertainment will not be paid for by consumers, but by advertisers, and media platform companies (cell phones, iPods, gaming devices) as a service rather than a product. Entertainment 'events' are safe though (amusement parks, concerts, theaters...) along with the advancing viewing technologies, as long as they can remain too advanced for consumers to copy.
