How important is the Internet to the new media?
Internet is the most crucial part of new media. the new media which we're using nowadays would't be accessable so easily without internet. we use internet to browse websites, connect with people through social networking sites, share files, play games and alot more.
Why and how are the new media replacing and / or enhancing the old media?
it's hard to tell why new media is replacing old media because i think new media is faster, more developed version of old media. Without old media we wouldn't be able to use new media. It's like a process of making changes according to our needs and making things faster. nowadays we think of TV as an old media and people are using computers to watch TV shows when they want to. Or reading news pepers online.
According to the Article in New York Times by Matt Richtel "Now a movement is afoot by chip makers big and small to spur a new generation of TVs with full browser capability, like a personal computer". they're trying to converge new and old media by introducing the characteristics of internet in new TV.
