Yeah, but its still usually cheaper to pay for software than build and support it. I think that will be true for a long time going forward, its just that you can't plan on extracting a ransom for your SAAS.


This is a great way to put it.

We're not going to see the end of software; we're going to see the end of margins.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect that other industries have experienced this. Would love to know which. Photography comes to mind, but I'm sure there are more meaningful examples.
