I'm looking for the key inovation of the web over the other services. Is that the hypertext?
Thank you

There are a lot of factors hypertext is certainly one of which.
But an important concept is that you have a single piece of software running on a server, can be accessed by thousands of people using plain browsers.
If you have a change to make, it is much easier to do on the web site. Imagine having required binaries copied to people's desktop to upgrade as just one thought.
Http protocol which is seamless across any platform as long as you follow the rules.
These are just few of the many factors.
