what's out in 2010

Normally yahoo articles are pretty "fluff" and this one kind of is, but it's still interesting to think about these things kind of fading out over the next decade:

Land lines in particular will be interesting - I don't think they'll exactly go away completely but I think the "traditional" landline network will be gone, replaced with running phone service over cable or internet as is already happening. And I think CD, DVD, and Blu-Ray will all be gone in 10 years, there's really no need for the expense and overhead of physical media in that realm.
