1、 1 外文资料 Can the iPad Save the Advertising Industry? One of the big questions surrounding the iPad is whether it will do for the publishing industry what the iPod/iTunes combination did for the music industry. The quick answer is probably, but keep in mind the fact that the iPod didnt save the music

2、industry as much as radically change it. In terms of sales, the iPod unquestionably helped. However, it also profoundly affected the balance of power of those within it； musicians, music companies and consumers. A better question is whether the iPad can save the advertising industry, and the answer

3、is that it probably will. With the iPad revolution, the change in the balance of power this time is between advertisers, publishers and consumers. Even at this point, it seems likely the biggest winners will be advertisers, and for several reasons. A whole new ballgame The iPad is the first e-reader

4、 to offer a full color display and a screen close in size to the standard magazine page size. This by itself is major milestone, but when combined with the Apple online iTunes store business model, it becomes a game changing innovation. Add the potential the iPad has to link to ad servers to offer a

The iPad format revolution 2 One of the key aspects of the iPad is that it will allow advertisers to use their existing standard size marketing material, drastically reducing the cost of launching an iPad ba

6、sed campaign. Until now, any advertiser wanting to reach consumers on the move had to contend with a very small screen size and a variety of layouts with which to display their advertising and catalogs. This not only limited the effectiveness of the advertising, it also added the additional cost of

Expect a new diversity of magazines When the Apple iBookstore goes live we can expect to see a wide variety of new magazines, some on topic

8、s we never considered likely, or even possible. Advertisers will be able to target many consumers groups not economically reachable now. The expected increase in variety will be similar to the increase that resulted from desktop publishing 25 years ago. Before DTP came along typesetting a single pag

9、e could run $50. This could add up to well over $2,000 for a 48 page magazine, an amount equal to the cost of printing a limited edition of the magazine. When typesetting became commodity priced it made a lot of publications economically viable that werent viable before. The same will happen due to

10、the iPad eliminating the cost of printing from the equation. 3 The catalog revolution With its large color display, the iPad will be a great way to distribute catalogs in Acrobat PDF format. Companies have been doing this for years, but the catch is that consumers had to be in front of their compute

11、r to use the catalog. The iPads main attraction is its portability. Anywhere you could read a printed catalog, in your bed, on your sofa, on the commuter train, you can read an iPad. Its not too hard to imagine the Apple iBook store having a section just dedicated to catalogs. Mixed news for publish

12、ers While advertisers may benefit from the iPad, the iPad is definitely a mixed blessing for the publishing industry. The iPad will offer publishers a new distribution channel for full color publications, at the same cost as black and white, offering unprecedented time and money savings. However, th

13、ose same qualities will act to lower the cost of entering the publishing industry, significantly increasing the competition. An increase in the number of advertising supported magazines will likely have a downward pressure of ad rates, something our industry really needs at this time.
