Don't bet the farm....

Large portions of the good 'ol US of A still do not have broadband and probably will not in any near future.

Some of us still use POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) to join you folks and some of us (me.....) have enough crappy copper between us and the switches that we're lucky to get 22K connections with a 56K modem.

Phyisical media players aren't going anywhere soon.
