Blog Post 7 Question no. 3

Media and how we utilize it will always evolve alongside with the latest technology as long as humanity is around. I remember when I was young it took nearly a year for a movie to appear at the video store on vhs. Now video stores are all but extinct when you have red box at a corner or Netflix on your computer. Also that it takes less than five months for a movie to now appear on dvd, blu ray, and other media to be enjoy on home usage. What changed all of this was the true evolution of digital technologies through computer coding that has replaced tape and vinyl. Even devices such as iPods  now seemed to be outdated by the ever evolving iPhones and android phones. Ten uears ago phones were not yet at the stage of even texting now thats is as common as cell phones go. As for news at my work we still sell newspapers but nowhere near as much when I was young and it looks relegated to the older generation only doing so. By phone, laptop, or tablet; one can pick up what is happening around the globe free of charge. Only scifi shows and television were able to show this trend such as star trek albeit set in rhec24th century minus warp speed which may take centuries hopefully if we get it. So on regards to question 3 yes media has changed on the past 10 to 20 years and media back then foresaw the change. What we do with it now will impact the next ten to twenty years through an evolutionary process that it will proceed to take us.
