"We realize that the internet is so awesome and efficient, that nobody (not Yahoo, not Amazon, not anyone) will be able to sustain a competitive advantage to generate profits to justify anything close to these valuations." How is this problem any different than in the real world? I can go to Eagle, or Home Depot, or Lowes. All of whom offer the same stuff. Everyone, whether they are on the net or not, has to create some kind of competitive edge. Service, price, location. Only location is partially eliminated on the net. I say partially because on which home page would you rather have your company highlighted, Teds Fish Market or AOL/YAHOO? The rules have not changes that much. What it sounds like you are saying is you don't think AMZN YHOO and the like are smart enough to compete and create a competitive advantage. It is a valid opinion, but it is still an opinion not a fact. Unless you have the ability to predict the future. Thanks, jb
