Let’s recap: as content creation and distribution tends to infinity, community emerges as true internet-native media. Community is an exercise in cultural production, and communities filter content proliferate a specific point of view. The role of the community, then, is to create and curate cultural artifacts in-line with their collective point of view (POV). Dirt founder Daisy Alioto would call this "the business of taste," where a community’s taste is their primary differentiator.

Products sold on the basis of their taste are traditionally recognized as luxury goods . When we buy luxury goods, we are buying the story more so than the utility of the product.
