I guess the rumors of etailing's demise are premature. :)

William,

The demise for pureplays is not a rumor. Is will become fact.

DSCM is not a pureplay. They needed are connected to troubled RAD. Growth did come from prescriptions I believe which is where some real margin may lie.

The more wisely manage e-commerce firms are making contracts and deals with traditional retailers. They will survive.

A pureplay cannot ever turn a profit.
