Like Ahhaha said, Net is earnings bust. I am pondering this issue and so far I don't have an answer. It's more and more obvious to me that they are making everything free on the Nets. Every company will be forced to offer FREE services on the net, and where are the earnings?
Internet revolution can't be sustained only via advertising. I hope someday we'll see a solid earnings model supporting the valuation.

Or, maybe I fail to see that E-commerce based advertising will be so strong that the entire INET industry can rely on this.
