We already had our industry-killing moment twenty years ago. There is no font industry. There is a sizeable community of mostly small and independent designer-manufacturer-vendors (the people whom I care about most), a tiny number of medium-size companies (most of which either went through multiple receiverships during the desktop publishing revolution or are the remnant results of those receiverships), and one large company that makes almost all of its money from software not fonts. We don't have a lot of blood left to give. JH
