The Core-Edge Dynamics Toolkit Core-Edge Dynamics Toolkit
Objective:
• Turn methodology into step-by-step tools for sponsors to apply to their own case studies
Approach:
• Use current taxonomy and methodology • Apply methods and lessons learned from case studies • Create worksheets to produce the “outcomes” • Update throughout the research program (e.g., adding System Dynamics)

Example: Digital Music Services – iTunes Music Store

Core-Edge Dynamics Toolkit Step 3: List triggers
Example: Digital Music Services
Technology Social behaviors • P2P networks enable unauthorized file-sharing • DRM enables authorized services •Users • Mobile phone networks enable mobile procurement and/or portable listening • create unauthorized P2P networks (started stealing) • Portable digital players extend the digital user experience • hack/circumvent DRM (keep on stealing) • Procurement, storage, playback, transfer capabilities of devices • respond to RIAA legal action (stop stealing) • Devices capabilities for procurement, storage, playback (fixed and mobile) • respond to legal alternatives (start buying) • demand mobile listening (service built around the portable Business player, e.g., iTunes + iPod) • Free music limits competitiveness of authorized services • demand mobile procurement (cell-phone shopping for • Subscription models reduce the appeal of owning music music) • Harder to justify storage costs • demand device convergence/seamlessness • Play list/index replaces tracks as the object of ownership • rent (streaming) and/or own (downloading) music • Labels sign with digital services • Sharing playlists rather than music files – rise of personal radio • client/server models attract majors only so far •Artists • P2P networks attract indies only so far • Choose cheap/free distribution and promotion via P2P • DRM used as a product-tying strategy by service providers (Apple iTunes) networks • Sabotaged by other service providers (RealNetworks) • Choose alternative license/compensation systems • Cultures/markets segment along architectural lines Regulatory • P2P vs client/server becomes analogous to • Copyright law Sundance vs Hollywood in the film industry • Legality of P2P networks • Potential conflict re Apple anti-establishment • Economic (anti-trust law) culture tied to iPod

Example: Digital Music Services – iTunes Music Store

Creation/ iPod FairPlay DRM distribution 0-4¢ The iPod is the iTunes is free iPod OS (high volume, iTunes player for centerpiece of the Mac/ creation low margin) Mac or Windows creation iTMS strategy. In 2004, the iPod had 92% of the high-capacity iPod Mac sales driven by device market. $25-45 per iPod $0 iPod sales (6% of iPod creation 52% of revenue users switched from PC low volume, to Mac in 2004.) high margin
Core-Edge Dynamics Toolkit $? Step 7: Create Coreness Path
Example: VoIP
Evolving Coreness of Call Signaling
• Circuit-Switched PSTN • Scarcity – ILEC and IXCs • Demand – High Price, Low demand (Number of Connections) • H.323 (VoIP in the backbone); some P2P (FWD); early SIP • Scarcity – ILEC, CLEC and IXCs, Calling Cards 1995 • Demand – Long-distance charges drop, No. of Calls increase
2000
• Facility-based, over BB and P2P VoIP 2005 • Scarcity – Higher Adoption of SIP Scarcity • Demand – Flat rate pricing, Free PC2PC Future Commoditization
Server-less SIP Future SIP-Service Interoperation VoIP-inside
