Digital Dilemmas
Digitization has already transformed much of the world’s Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT) industry. But the impact of digitization has affected not only the global TMT industry, but also much of the world’s economy. While many products have already been digitized, from telephone networks to recorded music, much remains to be digitized.
“Digital dilemmas” comprises interviews with 21 senior executives from the TMT arena on the topic of digitization. There are a wide range of views on how the subject should be approached - with original perspectives on the rationale and scope of digitization that are both interesting and informative.

I will suggest an alternative question while explaining the obvious answer to this one.
