I think there could be many sectors impacted from McDonald Burgers and Starbuck to generic brands versus "name" brands.
The first logic thing would be a reduction in consumption for fuel by either reducing the miles driven and/or by increasing the efficiency of the means of transportation.
What's unique about digital consumer goods is that you get abetter product at a lower price.

look at MGM...or look at MO (too many pundits giving their spin in regards to chips)
yo don't think MO would be impacted by switching to generic brands
