...advent of the internet has had a profound effect on countless aspects of our lives. Since the internet’s commercialization and availability to the general public in 1995, its impact and influence on our culture and commerce has been immeasurable. Nearly every industry has been affected to some extent or another by the widespread use of the internet. The entertainment industry has received seemingly endless media coverage pertaining to the industry’s adaptation, or lack of adaptation, to the new age of the internet. The entertainment industry (also informally known as show business or show biz) is a broad term for the industry of providing entertainment, which includes the sub-industries of radio, television, film, music, and theatre. This industry has gone through an enormous transformation since the internet’s inception in 1995. The internet continues to pose many challenges and opportunities to the industry. This paper will examine the impact, both positive and negative, that the internet has on the entertainment industry. Media coverage indicates that, among the entertainment industry, the film and music industries have been most affected by the World Wide Web. However, the other forms of the entertainment world have, albeit to a lesser extent, been affected as well. The least affected area of show business is theatre. The very nature of theatre is to view a performance live and in-person. There are websites, such as Arte Live Web, that do broadcast live theatre...

...Entertainment both reflects and constructs cultural values in America through the importance placed on money. The industry reflects how money has become one of the main values in America. It constructs American values through the use of violence, beauty, and exploitation in most mediums of entertainment. This set of values appears to have become the cultural norms in today’s society. In today’s society, everything people do revolves around money. The industry reflects that cultural value in nearly every form of entertainment. The majority of movies, songs, and books are carefully crafted in order to make the highest profit possible. Entertainment has lost the artistic value and has become more about selling the most copies. One example of the importance placed on money is the copyright battle.

It tells a story of a man who is very inexperienced sexually, and a girl who knows her sexual skills like the back of her hand. The young man wants only to hold this girl and love her. Instead he is pressured into sex with her, even though he really never wanted. Sex is what she wants and he knows it would make her happy by giving into her. He feels horrible while this happens, but he will not stop because he wants to impress her. Countering the Culture of Sex is an article by Ellen Goodman dealing with the entertainment industry’s plague upon society.
