Charles - I spent my early years in Detroit, where the 1930's move by GM to buy up DSR (Detroit Street Railway, the trolly system) and sell it to Mexico City was a well known object lesson in robber baron tactics.

We may eventually see a shift to less functionality at the user end if the services become rich enough. But that will, IMO, be at a point well down the road, rather than something which affects businesses any time soon. Most of the shifts I see happening now will require more power in the end user's hands, not less.
