May the Best Dot Com Win

NPR's Chris Arnold reports on the new reality behind dot com companies. In the Internet's early days, being the first company to offer a service was thought to guarantee success. Now, competition means the best company will win. A large number of dot coms are expected to fold because investors have become more cautious over which company gets their investment.
