Cross-subsidies free good + complementary goodmusic + music player; music + car
Tripartite transactions (advertising model)
free good + advertisementYouTube, Spotify
Freemium free basic version + paid premium versionordinary version vs. full version (video games)
3 non-monetary models - labor exchange – captcha, ratings, reviewsGoogle- gift economy = INFORMAL CIRCUITpure gift; delayed reciprocity, community (building image, using content)- piracy - good acquired for free“free rider effect” = downloading without uploading
CONCLUSION
• SECTOR: – gift economy = new opportunity– shrinkage + transformation (concentration, new actors)– cooperation with neighbour sectors
• BUSINESS: – no scale effect– new business models: b2b + gift models + informal circuit
of cultural goods– increased offer = increased diversity = difficult research– combined solutions = multiple models to maximize profits
• CONSUMERS: – closer cooperation and friendly relationships with
consumers– segmentation (niche + casual)
