How would you like to be in the Real Estate multiple listing business at this point in time?

Don't count it out yet. Geac Computer Corporation Ltd. just sold its Interealty MLS software division a few weeks ago for $35 million, about 1.5x revenues, to another company. MLS may go away, but realtors are doing everything they can to stop it. Realtor organizations have already gotten a few state legislatures to pass laws banning the use of discounting.

I read your comment and I thought: Gee, I don't know -- how many more "new laws" will some people now try to pass to stop what seems inevitable now, and in the future, due to the unlimited power of technology?

PS In short, the world is changing. I guess that's why this article I've posted about Google was not buried in the technology section of the NYT, but was was instead published on the Sunday NYT front page. Yet, some people still haven't gotten the message!
