Re: I keep hearing this, I don't believe it said by fifty nine:I keep hearing this about movies and now video games. I don't believe it. I think that physical media and game consoles will be around. Caps and overages, as well as broadband (lack of) availability in many places, including a moving car, won't allow this to happen. We may see games moving to a download model though, like the new PSP. The moving car problem can be solved once wireless broadband rates come down, and people like VZW get rid of their 5GB caps.

Not likely to happen anytime soon. Certainly not within the next 10 years. |

Where are you going to get the RF spectrum for all of this wideband data? |

I don`t know...they could always spend some of their endless piles of profit on raising more towers and extending fiber out to those towers. |
