With 64MB of ram and 2 hours of capacity this isn't going to replace the CD in the immediate future, even if you're computer can handle hundreds of hours. My teenage daughter carries a box of CD's in the car, probably at least 50 of them at any time. Having said that, who doesn't see flash memory going from MB to GB say in the next 3 to 5 years. With that kind of capacity she can have the equivalent of 50 CD's in memory, and these devices will not only replace the portable CD, they'll be incorporated into most cars, larger stereo sets, etc. How many other devices will become reliant on flash memory to either replace, or work in conjunction with conventional memory, the sky's the limit. Who will provide the capacity to control all this flash memory? EDIG Gary

RKHILL, I see distribution of content via the internet as a tremendous end to production costs. Of course, the cost to the consumer won't change. There's your profit incentive. As a cynic I would normally agree with that, but I have seen such a move to cost saving on the internet that the optimistic side of me has to disagree with that statement. If you think that then there would be no reason to buy on the internet. No reason for B2B commerce. The cost savings alone on music over the net is staggering. No packaging, no shipping just downloading . Why couldn't savings to the consumer be realized. Youth will flock to this method of music recording. This is one of the most dramatic examples of the internet revolution. Ted
