I personally don't really blame it all on the internet, the internet is just a medium. If the companies were smart, they would all take more advantage of it.
All in all, people are just changing, and imo, television is going to become a bit of an outdated medium, in the sense that, they rely on viewers at certain times, etc.
About the music changing...that happens everywhere. There will always be music that appeals to older people, and music that younger people listen to...I guess perhaps on a whole in Japan, in the old days, this wasn't so?
But to me, it's a natural progression of things, and I personally feel that their industry is extremely young, and that, there will be big changes for it in the future as they begin to understand how things work and don't work in their own culture.
I also have a hunch that their industry will turn out, just as the American industry has, and will see many of the same trends.

Everytime a new medium is created, the older ones (the ones that are not going to disappear) need to share the public...
So, people still read newspaper, listen to the radio and watch tv, but now, the public is also shared with internet... on the same way radio ratings were higher before tv for example...^^
I was studing this for college other day... Brazil's biggest tv channel is losing ratings, and the other channels are using this to promote themselves saying that this channel is starting to fall from the top... But all the channels are losing ratings
