Content-on-Demand: Business Models for the Media Industry Antonios Tzouvaras 1 Norbert Mundorf 2 Abstract This working paper analyses in detail the idea of Content-on-Demand and develops business model patterns. These patterns outline the future economic outlook and provide the media industry with a framework to implement concrete and leading-edge business models. Furthermore, important subclasses of Content-on- Demand are explained and the emerging patterns are applied to the already established subclass Print-on- Demand. The article also provides an initial estimate of the market impact of Content-on-Demand. 1 Antonios Tzouvaras (atzouva@uni-goettingen.de) is a research assistant at the media business research group at Institute of Information Systems, chair Prof Schumann, at Goettingen Business School, Germany.
