My Thoughts of the Effect of the Internet on the Media

The internet has effected the media in many ways. It has newspaper relatively unnecessary except for packing material. A person no longer has to watch the news to find out whats going on in the world. The internet is usually much more up to date on things like this.

The internet has also effected how we watch movies and tv. A person no longer needs a tv in order to watch his or her favorite programs or movies. A computer with internet nicely fits the bill. Most tv stations post their tv programs on their web sites. Also, iTunes usually has a tv show for sale only a day or two after its original showing on tv. iTunes also sells most movies or offers them for rent. Because of these options, a person is now free to watch whatever he or she wants whenever he or she wants.
