I think not that many rich people would be rich today without computers, and computer software. Since the internet is vital in business across the world, the absent of computers would make it virtually impossible for America to be trading effectively worldwide.

Well, I know I wouldn't have the cars I have, and I'd probably be a dentist or something. I'd never work on cars.

The world would still be using news reels, newspapers would be hi-tech.

Fine, I will elaborate. If the internet were to disappear now it would suffer. If it simply wasn't invented it wouldn't be as big as it is.

I'm pretty sure they'd be down.

I'm sure the internet spreading MP3s is an invaluable marketing tool.

Not everyone just up and downloads something, lots of people buy the MP3s and CDs legally.

but with out the net you wouldn't have mp3 players would you?? there would be no downloading at all.


the question is: If the internet was never invented, what do you think would happen?
not what would happen if the internet was all of a sudden gone?

I would be in a different career, possibly in the medical field working with nurses, giggidy giggidy allllriiiigggt

In a broader scale, a whole bunch of MMORPG players would never exist and the world would be a better place. But then again South Park wouldn't have been able to make that spoof on WoW.

Exactly, so CD sales would be down.

hang on, if there was no internet there would be no downloading how on earth does that equate to cd sales being down??

Maybe because people's exposure to new music would be limited? I don't know. I do know that I would either be working on cars or in the military if the internet wasn't around. Which I still might end up doing if I don't work with computers
