There will be a priniting business for a long time to come.
It will just be of smaller size.

So you have biz a. It has no paper costs, no printing costs, no storage, no distribution and a brilliant product with interactivity, video, hi res pics etc etc.

People said cars wouldn't take off too.

More recently people said craig's list wouldn't impact print media.

How many small town papers have closed SOLELY because craig's list took away their revenue stream?

It's really amusing me that people think print will carry on forever.
