I think the main concern nowadays is that the "actual money" being made by "real" companies is through advertising, and much of that advertising revenue comes from startups doing large ad buys with VC money. I worry that if the VC money dries up, then a lot of seemingly safe business models will also dry up.

I never thought of that before—as much as I'd love to get rid of this advertising-centric business model, I wouldn't want to go through another crash.
