Steve Rubel asks whether publishers are facing a three pronged build up to what he considers the ‘perfect storm’. The three factor he identifies are gas prices because “as gas prices go up, so will the distribution costs”, “a greater awareness among consumers of their environmental impact [and] will cut back on print in favor of digital media.” and lastly, “growing popularity of speedy 3G-enabled smart phones”.
