Good essay. Would like to add that all new technology, especially in the entertainment markets have all gone the same way historically.

All these industries over time succumb to the same economic and history trajectory- Time and money. The only thing is that unlike its forebears, the video game industry gouged its customers and shorted it’s heyday.
