		<description>Wow - so insightful. I would have to say that your last idea is mostly about emphasizing quality of information/products over short term gains (quantity/profits). I think consumers are demanding better quality b/c they can&#039;t afford to take such things for granted anymore. It&#039;s not enough to be a brand name - you have to deliver what people are looking for (and at the best price). I think the companies that don&#039;t recognize that end up working themselves into extinction.
