Title: Death to Paper
Post by: DolfanBob on October 18, 2012, 10:35:47 AM
Encyclopedia Britannica and now Newsweek. Print media is on it's way out. The hands of time are ticking on everything print. How much longer will we see books themselves printed? The Kindle, iPad, Surface and other electronics capable of destroying anything soft or hard bound.

8-Track, LP, Cassette, CD all gone or just about due to the digital age. Good money paid for possession of a product. Not just convenience of having, Gone.
I have had a personal computer now for 13 years. And I can see that the Desktop and Laptop are going to be victims of their own technology.

Who knows Mcfly. After I am gone. You may not need "Roads"
