   As I pointed out before, the car market works in exactly the same way.   
   Yet nobody claims that this bewildering variety of car makes and   
   models, shapes, sizes, numbers of seats and doors, and all the rest of   
   it, means that the car market will never succeed -- it already has,   
   precisely because of all that choice.
