They could not know of the battles to come. But they would be world-changing.

In Digital Wars, Charles Arthur assesses who are the victors in each of the battles over search technology, mobile music, smartphones and the tablet market, and’ which company can reap the rewards of wealth, controlover another part of the digital landscape and the chance to determine the shape of the future.
