Abstract :
As the global consumer continues to pour money into PC and Internet-based businesses, content providers are quickly falling behind in providing good programming. There are very few creative, interesting, or innovative Web pages on the Internet and even fewer clever uses of intranetworked computers. The paper considers how transaction costs for Internet purchases must come down
