Thanks for the super article. Seldom do I find a penetrating new idea on line, but though I am familiar with the long tail in statistics, I never enetrtained the connection with merchandising dot-coms. I own a $20 MP3 player that I use at the gym. It's all that I need there. My tastes in music, outside the collection of 60's and 70's Rock and classic CD's on my shelf would lead me to download, at a price, esoteric music (that I can't find) at top resolution. The I-Pod is nice--my brother-in-law has one and loves it--but I haven't found the player I want, and I-pod certainly doesn't have the music I'd like to obtain. In reply to: "Forget the iPod. MP3 players for the Long Tail."

Lots of sarcasm about the million to one contrast ratio. But, does anyone know what contrast ratio a HD digital feed supports? Probably useless to have more than that provided on screen. I do think that the full range of a wide rangeB&W silver halide film, such as Tri-X is about 12 stops or so--about 4000:1. So the OLED comes in about 8 stops wider than any film source can match. But scenes in real life are far more contrasty than 1,000,000:1. Perhaps, some day, looking at a fully utilized OLED screen in a dark room could be like looking out an open window.
