The Carr-Benkler wager is between Yochai Benkler and Nicholas Carr about whether the most influential sites on the Internet will be peer-produced or price-incentivized systems.
The wager was proposed by Benkler in July 2006 in a comment to a blog post where Carr criticizes Benkler's views about volunteer peer-production.[1][2]
Benkler believes that by 2010 the major sites will have content provided by volunteers in what Benkler calls Commons-based peer production, as in Wikipedia, Digg, Flickr and YouTube.[3] Carr argues that the trend will favor content provided by paid workers, as in most traditional news outlets.
