If old consumers were assumed to be passive, then new consumers are active. If old consumers were predictable and stayed where you told them, then new consumers are migratory, showing a declining loyalty to networks or media.

And we're going to continue being clueless going into this very difficult future that we face

His profits are the greater the better he succeeds in providing the consumers with those things they ask for most intensely.
