Daisy Whitney's New Media Minute, March 23, 2010

With Apple's iPad hitting the market in a matter of days, how big an impact will the computer giant's entrance into the tablet and eReader business make? A huge one, according to several research firms such as eMarketer, Yankee Group and Credit Suisse. Amazon's eBook market share is going to shrink, shrink, shrink over the next few years; there will be formidable new competitors coming aboard (hint: a big search engine!), and consumers will be buying eReaders by the bushel. For all the numbers and how the market shakes out, tune into Daisy Whitney's New Media Minute this week where she shares a first look at some of the early data on this red hot market. You'll also learn how the beleaguered magazine and newspaper industries will fare on tablets.
