New trends seems to indicate that we are entering a society in which usage trumps possession, via internet.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Capitalism for all<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Taking a closer look, this new economy is actually more faithful than ever to a principle that has survived through the ages: the market economy.
