The X# of Digital Disruptions

Post worth thinking about from A VC about the (first 5, then 7, now 9) "Digital Disruptions". He sites...

1. MPEG/MP3 - Disrupts the music and movie business
2. PVRs - Disrupts the TV ad business
3. Broadband Entertainment - Disrupts the TV business
4. Digital Cameras and JPEGS - Disrupts the film business
5. Linux - Disrupts the operating system business
6. Network Computers - disrupts the PC hardware/software business
7. Wireless Networks - disrupts the wire line phone business
8. VOIP - disrupts the entire phone business
and now from comments
9. RSS - disrupts content creation and distribution

Finding the business opportunities, and understanding the landscape in each of these is a very important thing for any investor or technology player to do.
