chris~Thanks for the posts. This weeks Barrons commented on the internet stocks as "demonstrating remarkable defensive qualities in a treacherous market." Maybe it was more than the TimeWarner hype that lifted RNWK last week after the AOL/AT&T revelation.
Been on the buy side for a couple weeks here. If this years large cap deceleration has started (jury still out) these little service companies could continue to be a theme for now. That is until everyone wakes up to reality.
The mania ceased for a couple of months. Long enough to panic those insiders to dump when their shares came out of lock up, remember May 21st was a 1.2M volume day when RNWK got hit down. Interesting how we down filled that March 23rd upside gap at the lows.
Chris, can you tell me more about Glaser, I don't know
enough, being rather new here. I probably have formed a wrong perception of him. I'd like to stay long but history has a way of repeating. Thanks for the details.~Regards, Russ.

I agree that the player is a useful tool for inet developers, but my question is "How the heck are they going to make money on this?"

Anyone remember PKZIP? Very useful tool, but it only won the battle for compression utility because it was given away for free... others who tried to charge for similar tools found that loyalty in software utilities is a funny thing...
