The New Publishing Landscape: Who Profits Now? Tablet momentum is spreading beyond Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) and the iPad with the less expensive Kindle Fire from Amazon (NSDQ: AMZN) and other contenders. Add that to the e-reader finally taking hold thanks to the price war between Amazon and Barnes & Noble (NYSE: BKS) and you have a new publishing landscape with e-books bringing in real dollars. But who will win the battle for readersthe standalone or media devices? And how much of an effect will the cloud have in determining the victor? The App Economy: Holy Grail or Dead End? Seems like theres an app for almost everything todayor will be. But is this a deep well or are we headed to rock bottom? Is app success at the expense of the web? Can the appified web bring in the same kind of revenue? What are the benefits and limitations of native apps vs. web apps? Is HTML5 the solution? A look at the limits and possibilities of the app economy. Paying the Way Spotify has 2.5 million paying customers. One year in, The New York Times pay wall is proving successful. Once a question of will they?/wont they?, consumer online content payments appear to have a rosier future.
