Entertainment, work, communications and many everyday goods and services are changing, or about to change, dramatically, and this book explains how they will affect you and your bank balance. If terms like WAP, MP3, DVD, PTV and GPS mean nothing to you and you don't want to be left behind, or you want to know what the options are and what they'll cost - or even if you feel you are being dragged along by events but still want reliable information - The Which? Guide to Going Digital is the book for you. It advises on what the products and services are, how they work and how they can communicate with each other.
