Why would I want to downlaod an mp3 file of a news broadcast when I can stream it live. Streaming and mp3 are designed for different purposes. jb

Berry, A know a lot of people who said the same exact thing about America Online in January, 1997. All I now is that about 60M folks have registered with RNWK, and they have 85% of the market. Secondly, I am glad that you know exactly where the Net audio/video market is going. Since streaming audio/video is now rendered obsolete or worthless based on your knowledge of everyone's usage of MP3 files, I am sure that Mr. Glaser, Mr. Cuban, and/or Mr. Gates will be more than happy to get you on retainer to continue your amazing abilities in knowing what will hapeen in this market segment. Just think of how much money you will save these companies, and the world, let alone how your portfolio will increase by avoiding total loser companies, like RNWK, BCST, and MSFT. If I were you, I'd be e-mailing my posts to these guys... Frankly, I amazed you know so much. Thank you very much for sharing this insight with all of us during this Net correction. Should any more of these notions come to you during reading Tarot cards, your dreams, your meditation times, or perhaps when you are taking your medications, please let us know. More importantly, please come back to us with your ideas when the Net correction is over, and the money is flowing back in. Any other brilliant minds who just knew this stock was coming back to 70? Come on, I know they're out there, just like they will know exactly when to buy back in when this goes back to 130. <sigh> G
