TCOSC Digital Media Society. Every aspect of the business of entertainment media and other content providers, and their traditional sources of revenue, are under assault by disruptive business models.

In a world dominated by Google, Apple and Facebook, can the other content and media companies retain or regain their former glory? This panel will explore what is happening in the media world from the perspective of the most prominent entertainment and media companies and leading online metrics and legal commentators, offering short- and long-term predictions on the future of this sector that is so vital to Southern California.
