“I’m a guy who doesn’t see anything good having come from the Internet. Period. [the Internet has] created this notion that anyone can have whatever they want at any given time. It’s as if the stores on Madison Avenue were open 24 hours a day. They feel entitled. They say, ‘Give it to me now,’ and if you don’t give it to them for free, they’ll steal it.”

I completely agree with him until the last 3 words, except I think this is a good and not bad thing. To have stores open 24 hours and the ability to go out and buy something at any time with out difficulty. I would think this would be a wonderful idea for the sales industry.
