Hamilton Media

[bornagainbiking]

I am basing this on my personal observation and changing routine. I used to enjoy sitting down and reading the or any newspaper. I was fond of the Spec on a regular basis and the Saturday Star and Sunday Sun. Linger over a coffee and share it with my wife. I still will stop into a pub and read the FREE padre there.
But, I stopped my subscription a couple years ago and don't miss it especially
Now with a laptop or iPad.
My point is were is the printed media going?
I got a phone call yesterday and was offered the Spec for $2.15 a week introductory offer. That is 36 cents an issue. What 70 % off. I still said No, because my recycle bin is less full and the damn things are nothing but a lb of ads. Namely the week-ends. With all the inserts.
So my point is, are we seeing the demise of printed material. I got a kobo reader that takes the place of a whole library with all the free classics great for the road or the cottage, no more book case.
With the newspapers iPad, iPod, iPhone, it is so much more convenient with less refuse.
Are newspapers obsolete?
