The Internet is the most useful invention of our generation. The accumulated effects of the Internet include significant contributions in the areas of education, the creation of jobs and furthering of professions, and an exponential increase in the amount and variety of entertainment for leisure time. It is the intent of this paper to evaluate the pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of the Internet in the areas of education, professional and leisure activities. Advantages of the Internet in Education There are a myriad of contributions the Internet has made to education, in addition to the many innovations occurring today in the context of individualized instruction. The development of e-learning management systems for example, which can unify an entire semesters' worth of work together into a sequential, well-defined series of steps, has shown significant potential in providing students with long-term learning motivation (Paul, 251).

Many of these courses are offered free of charge and only require access to the Internet. In recent media reports regarding an artificial intelligence source offered in this format by Stanford University, thousands of people signed up and attended for free. The Internet is a very strong catalyst of positive change in global education as a result. Of the many innovations from a learning standpoint occurring today, the ability to tailor learning programs to the specific needs of students through a technique called scaffolding shows significant potential as well (Najjar, 37, 38). Scaffolding is the use of online applications to create a very unique and customized experience for students. These and many other innovations have made the Internet indispensable in assisting students attain their educational goals.

Netflix is the leader in renting DVDs to its customers. When the customer returns one DVD, another is issued. Netflix gained a remarkable success but, on the other, it is facing some of the problems nowadays. Netflix charge a monthly fee from its customers and it has an agreement with the film studios. Due to this agreement, it pays the studios a specific amount from its revenue and this amount is paid on per issue rather than on monthly basis. Since film studios are observing dynamic growth of Netflix, it is likely that they will increase their share rate on per issue and since Netflix charge its customers on monthly basis, it is likely that a decline in its revenue will occur.
