Essay
question: “The internet
has given audiences much more power than ever before.” To what extent do you
agree with this statement?
Introduction
“The internet has
given audiences much more power than ever before”. In my statement I am going
to include both points for argument against and argument for. Many people would
agree because in a way the internet has given the audiences much power but on
the other hand they would disagree because the internet hasn’t given that much
of a power.
Music industry
The music industry
has changed so much because people these days don’t make albums and sell them
they now show their talent by publishing it on YouTube for e.g. Big Shaq (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M_5oYU-IsU). Bedroom bands are another example they don’t
go to any places to perform, they just do a basic video and they publish it on
YouTube and there is a possibility they will get famous like Justin Bieber (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQOFRZ1wNLw)
The advantages of
music industry is that you can promote yourself by recording yourself and
publishing it on YouTube these people are called bedroom bands e.g. Justin
Bieber, he recorded himself in his house while his mum was recording him
singing with you by Chris Brown. Another reason is that you can choose your own
song selection to watch and download for free illegally.
The disadvantages of music industry is that because
of one bedroom bands creating an album and and publishing it for free which
allows anyone to see would make other bedroom bands do the same and that is a
result of the music industry that sells album loses money therefore it would a
great loss to them.
Film industry
The film industry
has changed a lot in a positive way because the fact that back in the days
people watch film, series, drama and etc. on a television if they missed the
what they wanted to see then that’s it they missed it but now these days if
missed to watch the thing they wanted to watch people go on the internet and
searches it up and watches it.
The advantages of
film industry is that in the third quarter of 2017, NEFLIX had 109.25 million
streaming subscribers worldwide this is a really positive thing because they
are making a lot of money by the amount of view and subscriptions they get.
However, there is a
disadvantage to the film industry is that you have to wait for the series to be
published on NETFLIX whereas you can’t see it immediately when it’s out. This
lead the cinema to lose a lot of money because of the fact that now the
population of people coming to the cinema is going to be less because no would
really want to go they would rather go to buy a DVD.
Newspaper industry
The newspaper
industry has changed a lot because in the 21st century people read
the newspaper which is printed on paper and is posted to their doors and after
they finished reading the newspaper they wait till the next one is published
but these days the technology are now better which lets people read the newspaper
on a technology system but newspaper still do exist.
The advantage of
the newspaper industry is that people now a days don’t need to wait for the
newspaper they can just watch it on the internet. This is better for the people
so that they are aware of the news.
The disadvantage of
the newspaper is that the newspaper industry is losing a lot of money because
the fact no one would buy newspaper they would just search it up and another disadvantage
is that no one knows who to trust, they might publish fake news on the
internet.
conclusion
In conclusion to
this there are disadvantages and advantages in all media industry. Music industry
is good on behalf of the fact you can publish yourself and become famous
however It’s bad because the music industry aren’t getting any money out of
this. Film industry is the same when NETFLIX was spread everyone stopped watching
television because they could use internet and watch anything they missed. Newspaper
industry is good because now a day’s people can use the net to see the news
this makes them safe and they know what is going in their area.
