demand for information value Explanation: My confidence sinks as I rewrite this! Literally: This is demand for information value as seen in consumers switching from buying CRT to LCD TVs based on the timing of new models (?) and (telecommunication?) reforms. Still not sure if this is demand FOR information value or demand (for TVs) SHAPED BY information value …the most critical factor is the information value, which is essentially the answer to the question: What does this data mean (to me)? http://iplot.typepad.com/iplot/innovation/index.html |

the demand for subjective value Explanation: 情報価値 appears as if it may be the 'value' that is dictated by circumstance. In the original sentence the perceived value of changing to an LCD television is increased when the circumstance (customer is redecorating and refurnishing) is taken into account.
