Let' see, public transport services will drop in patronage, no new vehicles required, university campus size will shrink, lectures can be recorded and delivered repeatedly rendering lecturers redundant, no employment in university for future graduates, etc.

The futurist gurus predicted in the 60's have finally realised that with advancement in computer technology we would have more leisure time - playing on iPad, doing nothing constructive.

It's like online shopping, the down side is loss of employment. Unfortunately service industry will prosper if other industries can bring home the bacon.
