All other industries mentioned are passed their hay day with the inception of the internet; there are so many ways in which to get yours news, to watch your favourite programmes etc. The way in which entertainment is consumed, with the possible exception of the "cinematic experience" is going online.
KA-POW!
Well folks!
If you had any doubts that the video game industry was just a fading fad...guess again:
