A similarity between the culture industries and other industries(such as a bakery) is they both sell a product in return for profit. A difference would be in the culture industries it may be risky because producers may not know how their audience will react to the product meaning they might not make profit but on the other hand in other industries they know there is a sustainable audience for their product because its not as heavily reliant on opinion.
