Similarly in mobile, where worldwide subscribers have grown from ~400 million in 1999 to over 5 billion today. The smartphone segment of that is still relatively small, but it's growing 100% year over year.
Meanwhile, today's largest Internet companies have five times as many users as the entire Internet subscriber base in 1999. My point is, startups that can profitably solve a problem have HUGE markets to sell to!
