Gasta Tech views : Paid Content

The momentum for change is growing as the topic of paid content has come full circle. Now, as the tumultuous economy speeds up the transformation of traditional media, and with the industry getting squeezed from all sides, the debate around the business models for digital content has become much more urgent. On February 19th, we will be bringing this debate to you live with our first namesake conference, paidContent 2010, in New York City.

At the start of this new decade, we will be gathering the serious stakeholders in the content industry for a high- level, forward-thinking discussion of the major issues and opportunities facing us. Areas of focus will include:

» Business strategy and models that are working across news, information and entertainment » The people and companies driving innovation » The cross-platform approach to developing these diverse revenue streams » Music, TV and movie downloads, subscription streaming, a la carte payments, micropayments, subscriptions, donation models, subsidy models, mobile payments

Join us on February 19, 2010 as we gather the senior business leaders representing publishers, content technology companies, investors, analysts, and leading members of the press and blogging community to discuss the most pressing business issue of our day.
