New Media Vs Old Media

Old Media Vs. New Media
Old media was once new media. People used to communicate with the help of telephone, letters etc. Journalists used to write news on newspapers. Television, radio, movie theater were main source of entertainment. People mostly used to depend on radio, television, newspaper for information.
But New Media is the transformation of the existing media. Journalists start using blogs to post their news instead of newspaper. People start watching movie on internet rather going to the theater. They use podcast instead of radio. New media helped individuals to become a manufacturer and distributor.
Some examples of old media and old media are:
Old Media -> New Media
  1. Books -> eBooks, Hyperext,Wikis
  2. Music -> Pandora, mashups
  3. T.V -> Online movie
