That's where he went wrong. He was arguing against the internet of his time.
People who were predicting rise of internet were arguing about internet of future.

You misunderstood my point. Researchers took all concern under consideration to make internet technology reliable.

This one about book might become true in future but perhaps 5 years is too early for it.

Many of us remember CD's came and took over Cassettes and Vinyl records and now even CDs are pretty much gone. I believe that ebooks are going t o take over 80-90 percent of the market in 2-3 years.

Agree 100%. CD's are gone, DVD's are going to be gone soon. BluRay is obsolete before it even started. Everything is soon going to be streaming. Even the president of Netflix, who based their business on DVD rentals, said that they're converting over fast.
Even on the software side its the same. Most enterprise class software is downloadable. It burns me like anything when I need some software app on a server and I have to hunt down CD/DVD that it came on. The first thing I do when I get new software is to copy it to the the central storage. And I'm talking about home :D
