MP3? Look to Sega Nintendo and those machines that pack a power that used to be Cray Supercomputers. Imagine the kids playing on line? The Silicon cockroaches ecommerce e-business is gonna happen: it costs more to sell a workstation than produce it. Look to the film industry. (I think The Economist gave those figures) They spend 70 million to produce then add more 30 mega dollar in distribution and marketing. ). These content providers are under pressure. They are going to Canada to shoot the stuff thjere where is cheaper. How about cutting down those 30 million? The kids -who grew up without floppies, without having that limitations we had on handling bits from here to there- will drive this up on the entertainment segment. On the MP3 side: The kids in Finland can download music form a server to use it as the ringing sound on their mobile phones. These are the guys who will drive the Broad band thing. Our problem is the limits we think there is, because we had HD with 20MB. But the spoiled kids want the whole thing and they want it now.
