Here is a great video from the eg 2007 conference of Peter Hirshberg giving a historical perspective on developments in new media and new mediums.

 
Great quote: "The old media is the content of the new media" - Marshall McLuhan

Books were the content for movies,

Movies were the content for television,

Television is the content for internet with enough broadband saturation.
