Internet commerce is going to be much larger in the future, and the future is in essence here today. I work at a local hospital and we work 12 hour shifts...If I want a movie for the kids to order it on the net and recieve it in the mail is much easier for me than complying with the Blockbuster Video hours.

I like this idea much better than Divx for all the reasons posted too

I think internet sellers are here to stay, look at AMZN and now Barnes and Noble selling books over the net, and there are other internet music sellers besides KTEL. There are also mail order videocassette houses. Netflix is just the latest version of mail order sales that have always been popular, using the net instead of a catalog. Cheaper, and more environmentally friendly (no paper catalogs). That said, you are absolutely correct that AMZN and the other internet fliers are going to take a HUGE fall, just a matter of when. YHOO could go to 200 before it falls back to 20. The market is nuts right now, nobody pays attention to valuation when it comes to anything connected to the internet. When that changes, look out below!
