It's become a cliche, but I sincerely believe that the lack of a decent micropayment system sabotaged any chance of that for-pay culture existing on the internet and prevented it from becoming the economic engine we once envisioned.
However, such phenomenal social progress has been made, and could only have been made, in that commercial vacuum, and there is more to come. It's not worth giving that up for the quick fix of a consumerized internet.

The Internet is fine and making a lot of cash for everyone involved. It's quite the economic engine.
