's difficult to derive reliable figures from an industry that, despite flirtations with the mainstream, is made up of many small shops that prefer to keep a low profile. But the figures that exist paint a picture of a booming online field, fueled by the relatively low costs of setting up shop, fickle consumers in constant search of new thrills and the promise of quick profit

::awaits the influx of no0bs::

Sounds about right.

ha, if its on cnn....

yeah, i wonder if Lens would release the new members per month numbers.

draw the floodgates

what about the sky is falling we are going out of business because of visa? Didnt they take that into account, by 2007 there will be $0.! :1orglaugh

5 to 7 billion? Maybe they know something we don't?

I doubt that seriously. If anything the consumers will find novel ways of payment. I would be looking for that 'next big thing' if I made money here.

I was being sarcastic :(

ah...all good then....

Tis 4AM time for ze sleep :thumbsup
