[Air-l] Internet as medium with different sub-media or channels?

[Opgenhaffen Michaël]

Hello,
 
I've been researching the internet as information source and now I want to make a distinction between different applications online, like www, email, msn, ... 
 
My question is how I need to describe these online applications: are they different (sub-)media (together forming the meta-medium Internet) or are they different channels within the Internet as medium? I've read different voices in literature and now I'm so confused I can't get out anymore ;-)
 
If anybody has a opinion or suggested litterature, I will be grateful. 
 
Thanks in advance!
