SMS bigger than movies, video and software

Ajit has posted an interesting finding.
Total SMS revenues in 2005 were about 75 Billion USD which is much more than Hollywood box office, Videogaming, consoles and all software.
SMS is a 90% profit business.

Ok so you guys are talking about free sms.. Coming to this fact... I myself own a website where I give out free SMS in India. Nothing is free of course.. I have to pay for the SMS cost the visitor sends. It is a lot more cheaper for me as I buy the sms in bulk from the SMS gateway. So even it's free at your end it isn't free for me.. And wondering how I make revenue to pay my bills.. Simple I use Google AdSenes..
If you want to send Send Free SMS to any mobile in India I welcome you to my website. www.avgoc.com
My revenue is less in the Free SMS part than In the jokes section. I have got many SMS Jokes which attracts a lot of people.
