| Abstract: | We examine two competing technologies for delivering business information to professional subscribers: first, a package service that delivers information using physical media; second, an online service that allows subscribers to access information over online networks. Service providers first commit to a service design and then enter a price competition phase, where they choose the parameters of their feasible pricing strategies. We show that the package provider serves high volume subscribers while the online provider serves low volume subscribers. |
