Abstract

Information and Telecommunication Technologies make possible the access to an enormous quantity of information and its processing. This fact is deeply affecting household behaviour in different ways. This article focuses on the consumption changes. Firstly, the changes in the form in which the families acquire goods and services are discussed, particularly through the electronic commerce, its requirements and its limitations. In second place, the case of consumption of leisure and culture is considered; taking into account the new possibilities offered by Internet and the digital technology, and its impacts on the musical sector, editorial, radio and television.
