That list sucks.

DVDs - discs are popping up for 5-10 bucks everywhere. Not everything is available over on-demand.

CD's - there'll always be a place for uncompressed audio. MP3s suck for maximum sound quality.

Non-SLR Digital Cameras - dumbest argument ever. Just like with 35mm cameras, there'll always be a use for compact units. SLRs are becoming more popular because they don't cost $1000 anymore, not because they're becoming a viable alternative to a camera that fits in your pocket.

This is terrible, this article.

I think External drives will be around for a LONG time. Most people don't have the bandwidth or the patience to upload 300GB of stuff. I can get 1 TB for like $100. Just get 2 of them and store one in your car in case of a fire or something.

Also people will not stop buying SUVs and pickups.
