Not from my perspective. I get free mapping anywhere on earth, with traffic information, and can route plan walking, cycling, driving, or public/private transport and likely journey times. I can search the world's web-published information. I'm using a powerful, relatively affordable mobile phone. I can watch anything anyone with a camera uploads to YouTube across the world. I can pay from my phone with a thumbprint verification only. I can take a photo of something and get back what it is and some information about it.
