IMO, eventually we will have no TV stations as we know it now. All entertainment of this type will be via an internet connection (or similar device) and most will be PPV on demand with a monthly bill depending on what you watched that month.
I remember being asked in school back in the 70's what life would be like in the year 2000, I thought we'd all be living or at least holidaying on Mars...so I'll pass on this one
And, as I've posted on similar threads, where's my jet pack ? The 10yo me would have been sure that they'd be commonplace at this stage.
I think we are at the "Wild Wild West" stage regarding to where the internet is at present. Hard to imagine it being possible to download music illegally with such ease in the future.
Tarfhead - FB etc is also still only in the very early days, and Id bet someone/somewhere who is related to you is on it - thats enough for family tree tracing - you just need one link in.
We'll see the demise of the laptop and desktop over the next few years with the move to slates. Desktops PCs will go the way of the tape recorder. As will the printed book.
We'll see the rise in contactless payment technology, you'll pass your phone over a reader and have the price of something deducted automatically, instead of carrying cash.
As will the printed book.
