– Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man (1964)

New distribution channels change who the customers are. They change not only how customers buy but also what they buy. They change consumer behavior, savings patterns, industry structure—in short, the entire economy.
– Peter Drucker, “Beyond the Information Revolution”
