Unlimited bandwidth, unlimited storage

The world is only a couple of years away from unlimited bandwidth and unlimited storage. The coming together of these two technologies presents incredible business opportunities.

Completely new business models will be created based on all information being available to everyone everywhere all the time. Learning as we know will change completely. With everything immediately at our fingertips why bother to learn anything ?

It is as if our collective consciousness is expanding with the increasing ease of access to learning, opinion and knowledge.

The true skills will be the creation of new valuable knowledge, rather than the verbatim learning of existing knowledge.

The widely available blog is a symptom of this new desire to create additional knowledge which is available instantaneously to everyone.

Soon I am sure ipods will ship with more music and you can handle in a lifetime ! The deal with Apple Music now allows Apple Inc to ship iPods with music embedded. I just learned that the U2 iPod didn't have the music embedded but came with a voucher to download it from iTunes.

Pretty archaic, huh ! Not for much longer....
