[...] Sir Abe has blogged about this last year, he first hinted that the GMA7 and Inquirer partnership that produced INQ7.net will soon be over, later on he chanced upon the site referring back to the inquirer.net domains, then this news that the INQ7.net will continue (’as a portal’) despite GMA7 launching their own website.

Now the question is what will happen to the domain name “INQ7.net”. Will it be owned by Inq or GMA7?

The PDI will be at the losing end. INQ7 is making money only because GMA is paying them for the news that they provide. If not for the money GMA is pumping on INQ7 matagal na patay ang site na ito.

Also most INQ7 reporters will not be absorbed by either GMA or PDI as their heads have swelled like balloons according to a reliable source from within GMA.

I wouldn’t be surprised. Perhaps they’d like to have an entirely different news portal of their own, without relying on content from a partner broadsheet?

When i started with my GMA Pinoy TV subscription on directTV i only hit inq7.net once in awhile. People like myself likes watching what’s going on there on TV than reading it in the web (content wise). I believe GMA recognises that they need to spend more of their time and money developing their own internet portal like gmapinoytv.com than piggybacking other company’s portal, which i believe don’t give much value added to gma7. I also noticed lately, inq7 now looks like an edsa (before melenyo) full (billboard) ads left and right you can’t even recognise the main content.

I’ve asked a couple others who might know a little bit more about the issue but couln’t get a solid answer. I could ask Jayvee Rufino himself but I don’t think he’ll allow me to blog about it as well. *hehehe*

In any case, GMA 7 is on the lossing side. Unless they think they’re not getting a fair share of the pie as it is.

Wow. I think GMA7 stands to lose more. People come to INQ7.net for news (the written type). In that arena, Inquirer is top of mind, especially for the online overseas market. Very seldom do I see people use the multimedia content from GMA7.

If GMA7 wants to compete in the online news space, they’ll be hardpressed to dislodge INQ alone. Worse, what if ABS CBN comes over and partners with INQ. Maybe I should buy INQ2.com already.

Interesting to see how this pans out.

I still prefer philstar over inq7 though.

So if it’s true: back to http://www.inquirer.net!

Inq7′s great but sometimes, I find a lot of bashing to ABS-CBN (specially on topics about television shows). Also, some of the shorter but fresher articles that pop out are partly inaccurate or badly written.

Maybe it could be better if GMA stepped out of the game and headed their own way.
