There should be an asterisk at the of the title Steve Blank's SXSW talk saying:

While new rules are in place for the new bubble they only apply to startups operating in the bubble. All other startups should continue following the rules for their respective sphere. Entrepreneurs should continue to start startups in any sphere.

He talks about four paths to startup liquidity. I hope he noted the latter doesn't replace the former. It should seem obvious but in the world of the new iPad making the original iPad a paperweight, I don't think it is. I'd argue for the continued validity of the former business models.

I wrote in more detail about this on my blog:
