1. More Media Ownership Terminology
• Horizontal Integration - Where direct competitors within the
same industry merge. This reduces competition and costs
(Consider the number of record labels that come under the
Sony Music Group now). Sony, Universal and Warner are all
horizontally integrated organisations within the music industry.
2. More Media Ownership Terminology
• Lateral Integration – integrated with companies across a range
of media and other industries. Sony Corporation is a large
media conglomerate who benefits from being laterally integrated
across a range of media industries, for example film, music and
video games as well as producing media technology and
electronics. If you put all of Sony's media companies together
then they can be seen to be a dominant institution in global
media.
