Watch this interview with Rupert Murdoch who is suggesting (stating) that News Corporation is likely to make its content ‘unfindable’ to users on Google when it launches its paid content strategy.
Couple of quotes:
“Murdoch said, “We’d rather have fewer people coming to our website, but paying.” User pays and internet… almost an oxymoron in the context he’s talking about it?
“They [users] can also, if they choose, have only a small summary of their content indexed.” Aha written ‘sound bites’ and teasers… nope I’d go once and then forget their site totally… not smart Mr Murdoch!
The telling thing for me was the level of communication or quality (or lack of it) of his speech. Looks like and icon is fading to me. Pity needs to hand it over to someone a bit younger perhaps and I’m a pretty old guy myself so it hurts to say that about anyone let alone Rupert Murdoch.
