These last may even represent the majority of the market, reaching a wider audience, if prices, still exceeding € 300, were to fall. Also according to this study, the digital book and digital media in general should know a better situation and favorable growth in the coming years, most users remaining faithful to the paper (including books), seeing the new devices with only additional functions. In addition, unlike the music industry or the audiovisual industry, there are very few parallel market, where users can illegally download works. If this phenomenon were to grow, then it may be as difficult for the publishing industry as the entertainment industry. Currently, there are three main schools of thought on the so-called traditional print media and its evolution towards digital media.
