I'm sure it's kind of hard to convince your investors that crazy money should be poured into long term reasearch when the current product is plenty profitable, demand is high, supply is.... who knows.... but it's not going to be a problem for at least a few years, maybe hundreds, and most businesses don't take on a project unless they can come up with an idea of when it will be profitable. I'm sure that when THEY think it's getting scarce, then they'll try something else. But why would you expect them to do anything but push their most profitable product?
