There are no barriers to entry in corn flakes or colas either.

Hmm? Manufacturing/processing plants, secret formulas, distribution channels, best agreements with suppliers of raw materials and guarantees to fill the orders to get the best prices, hundreds of millions if not billions of dollars. Oh, and all the time its takes to put this all together. Maybe years. Hmm?

And an internet portal? Memory chips and good programers. And a few months to put it together.
