Abstract:
|
This paper intended to find the potential that Internet plays a role as a functional alternative for TV. For the purpose, this paper tested the difference between Internet use and TV use, especially focusing on the differential use of a) genre, b) motives, and c) perception of both medium. Some tests were done with divided four groups (both light users, TV heavy users, Internet heavy users, both heavy users) based on the degree of use. Results show that the different uses between heavy user and light user are shown only in limited variables. Big different uses are found only for the primary uses of a medium or the uses having relative superiority over the other. Conclusively, although people spend more time on a medium, the high frequency of use does not necessarily lead so called ‘all or nothing’ strategy to be adopted to changed media environment. Rather, people’s reaction to the new medium may be rational as a partial substitute or eclectic supplement by assessing one medium’s relative superiority over the other, rather than complete change of media using patterns and related perceptions. |
