The Failed Promise of Digital Content: a recap, part 2

The public Internet arrived on the scene in the early 1990s with a lot of promise. Since then, it has revolutionized commerce, communications and entertainment.
But there have been bumps on the path to the libraries of content available anywhere and anytime that people were promised.
Over the last five years, I have written about the shortcomings of the Internet and digital media when it comes to content – music, video, documents, etc. I published a recap of the first 20 parts of the series on Nov. 3, 2010.
Here is an index of parts 21 to 40 of the series “The Failed Promise of Digital Content.”
