Ok...
To stay on point of your OP, define "better".
Oh wait, you cannot....something "better" is incredibly subjective.
"Better" being the benefit the people buying the service or product receive, which they would otherwise be without. And yes, it's subjective, entirely from the point of view of the people paying for the benefit. Which is why I've been objecting to the people who think "better" is defined ONLY the way THEY see it, all the way through this thread.
Are we "better" because of Facebook and Twitter?
Walmart?
The people who use them think their lives are better for it, and that's a great, great many people.
Your OP is just an opinion, backed up, by feelings and emotion.
I gave objective measures. It's not my emotions or opinions in play here; it's that of all the people who buy what a successful business sells.
People don't buy things because they think the world is worse for it.
I wasted my time trying to have an intelligent conversation.
Dude, it is not my fault you were wanting to talk about something other than the topic of this thread.
