Glenn's question

3. Will people ever allow virtual reality (the ultimate form of media) into the home or will it always be considered a novelty?

I don't think virtual reality will ever become part of every one's home like television or radio or Internet has. I think that VR is unfeasible not only because of its costs $$ but the sometimes far-from-simple procedure that VR requires (putting on different types of equiptment, etc) makes VR unattractive to the American household. I know our society has picked up more and more forms of entertainment that use the whole concept of virtual reality (like Wii), but I don't think VR will ever become the norm for families. Though virtual reality feels extremely real, it appears on the outside completely bizarre that factor alone is something that will make most home's hesitant to accept this type of media.
