The Base

Internet infrastructure

Starting with narrowband and moving to broadband.
The First Derivative opportunities

•
Internet based companies such as AOL, Amazon, Yahoo, Google,
eBay, and others
The Second Derivative Plays

Skype - $4 Billion!

Moogle, MeBay, Mamazon, Metc.

Mass Personalization and Citizen Media

MediaCos (not Telcos or CableCos, but Network TV without the
Network)

The Ghost of Network Past
•
Telecom was the most valuable and profitable industry in
the world


•

Page 7
When I joined AT&T Bell Labs in 1981 it was the worlds largest
company and its most valuable
We’ve since seen Divestiture and Trivestiture, (and now
reassembly!) along with a tremendous growth in the
competitive environments…
Along with a dramatic surge in capacity and capability in
the following 25 years..
Spurring in turn a tremendous surge in innovations, not
the least of which included the internet and the web

$1.4 Trillion in 2005

Strong demand for higher and higher bandwidth
Increasingly Pervasive “always on” Broadband
Enabling the 1st derivative business models to enormously
prosper such as those of Amazon, Yahoo, eBay, and
Google
Google is now worth over $100 Billion, which is more than
any telecom operator in the world, except for Vodafone
Group, which has grown by acquiring over 26 operators
Skype was already acquired for $4 Billion by eBay
P2P traffic from a small percentage of subscribers
dominates the internet backbone
All telcos are planning some form of IPTV in a triple play
with 10s of Mbps of BB BW
The Ghost of Network Future
•
•
•
•
Page 10
A number of potential futures
One is where telcos ride the new wave of opportunity by
radically transforming their business models to meet the
new challenge
Another is where telcos are ridden by the new 2nd
derivative players, some of which are the 1st derivative
players, who have evolved, and are now gear-shifting into
overdrive
Let’s look at the second one first, because that’s what
Dickens would do

Plentiful Consumer Broadband in capacities un-dreamed of 10
years ago…
Driven by the MAD Winner-Take-All competitive threat of The
Triple Play …
Driven by the push to mix Entertainment Delivery with Telecom…
Digitally using IP…
At low costs…
Even free…
Or “apparently” free to the consumer…
Using a new advertiser supported business model…
Which is no longer broadcast based…
And everything is stored on increasingly abundant cheap
storage, and instantly retrievable by anyone anywhere

What Do You Call 1,024 Petabytes?

And the answer is…
An
•
•
•
Terabytes of Storage will become common place in the
average broadband consumer home within 5 years
As the tendency to keep rather than discard data
increases, along with more sources
What is a Googabyte?

A New $1 Trillion Industry…
•
It will be made up from the convergence and collision of
three different industries

Entertainment: $72 Billion

$12 Billion Music

$60 Billion Movies

Advertising: $600 Billion

Telecom Services:$1.4 Trillion
The Tail may be wagging the Dog
Net Net: $2 Trillion  $1 Trillion
But, there will be a different set of winners and losers
Key Catalysts: Read on…
Enter Googlezon
•
•
EPIC 2014, a short film by Matt Thompson and Robin Sloan
Ads move from broadcast TV, newspapers, print,
billboards, other, to Online

•
•
•
•
Page 15
NY Times shuts down, unable to support its printing costs
Mass personalization makes advertising much more
compelling both to advertisers and potential customers
Google buys Amazon to create Googlezon
Everything that’s bought begins with a search
With personalized, search driven, real-time inserted, online
Ads…

People get ads that they actually want to watch,

Related to something they are interested in purchasing,

Rather than are annoyed by and seek to skip
Which Becomes Googlezonage
•
TV is offered for free, again, this time Pointcast over IP, not
broadcast



•
•
•
•
Telephony rides for free on IP, leading to financial crisis in
network operators
All telcos learn to operate within bankruptcy, like the airline
industry
Google buys AT&T (out of bankruptcy) and Vonage to keep the
broadband pipes flowing
Wireless is the only surviving stand alone network business


Page 16
All supported by a real-time hyperlinked Mass Personalized Ad model
NBC, ABC, CBS shut down, replaced by Bloggers
MTV, Fox, and Craig’s List survive as the new Ad Aggregators (a la
Overture)
But its threatened by Googlezonage’s new Global WiFiMAX FreeNet
Enter Googlezonage Mobile
It’s a MAD MAD World

M.A.D.: Mutually Assured Destruction for telcos and cable
operators
But, There’s An Alternative Future
•
•
•
•
•
•
Page 18
Telcos and Cablecos not only offer IPTV, but get involved in
Internet TV
They add intelligence in their networks to make sure they are
paid for the value of connection in order to keep the pipes alive
Nobody unsustainably gives valuable network connections away
for free without someone paying the operators
The new business models that are created involve a true payment
methodology for QoS that reflects value, and that could be paid
by sponsors such as advertisers
New applications are spawned, which further institutionalize the
network providers into the value chain, rather than Skype them
out
Connection will continue to be valued and paid for
The Stupid Network is a Stupid Idea
•

Page 19
Stupid Networks lead to stupid and
unsustainable Business Models
Stupid Networks would ultimately only have
price/bit as differentiation…
Leading to rapid commoditization…
Which drives profitability out of all competitors…
Which makes the business un attractive…
Which makes it un-finance-able…
Which makes it un-staff-able with top talent
Which leads to collapse
