Public B2B Exchanges Must Look Toward the Future (Dec 2001)
Impact from the soft economy was only one of the hits that public B2B exchanges took over the last six months. Not only have buyers grown more cautious as the economy has headed south, but also the tough business climate has made firms more competitive.

Lack of standards that streamline the supply chain are yet another weakness of these electronic marketplaces.

Intellectual property owners are eager to prevent a repeat of the lack of copy protection on CDs and CD-ROMs. When record companies launched the CD over 20 years ago, they decided not to encrypt it. That decision simplifies copying or pirating any information recorded in CD format. Now a variety of schemes are being proposed to protect information on the Internet and new media formats such as DVDs. The question of whether these protection methods will be viable and what they offer content producers has complex answers.

Perils and Profits Line the B2B Path (April 2001)
The reality of business-to-business (B2B) commerce is that purchasers seldom achieve a discount better than 5 percent more than they could have gained through negotiating in the old brick-and-mortar world. Many times the savings from B2B transactions are not even that good. This lack of savings from online trading helps explain the fact that purchasers have been slow coming to B2B and that most agreements they had with their traditional suppliers remain in place. Clearly B2B merchants will have to do better to wean buyers from their usual way of doing business.
