This industry is far from dieing.
Ask Larry Flynt if he makes more today then he did 30 years ago?
The reality is more programs care about quantity over quality. And that is understandable.
Those that treat this as a business and apply business principals will always make money.
Consolidation will always happen and then it will grow again.
Years ago some companies were untouchable and where are they now?
Innovation comes with being one step ahead of the curve or making a product just a little better then the other guy.
Some companies grow too fast. Another business principal. It happens and when a slow down comes it can kill you.
There is more money in this industry then 5 years ago, except it is being broken down over more pieces.
Fear, threads like this are self fullfilling proficies...believe it and it will happen.
Honestly Platinum Daves post is bang on. Look at Ford today 100 years after making cars...they make the shittiest cars in the world.
Toyota is the biggest and best automaker only in the last couple years and the industry is over a 100 years old. How does a company just over 30 year old become the biggest in the world? Just make a product a little better then the other guy.
How does one of the biggest automobile maker in the world become the biggest money losing corporation in the world. Make a product just a little shittier then the others.
