In 2006, the home is real estate with some appliances in it.
In 2016, the home is a digital data processing network for 
entertainment, learning, and the operation of life with some real estate 
wrapped around it.
The question is:  Who gets the keys to your home?  You?  Or the people 
who deliver the pizza and the movies?
