Success Quote by Rob Glaser

“Mobile entertainment is a huge opportunity” is the kind of optimistic, investor-facing sentence that doubles as a map of fear. Glaser isn’t merely spotting a trend; he’s signaling that the center of gravity has shifted and that anyone anchored to the PC risks becoming yesterday’s platform company. The word “opportunity” does a lot of corporate work here: it frames disruption as upside rather than threat, a way to reassure employees, partners, and markets that the company isn’t being dragged into mobile kicking and screaming.

The second line is the tell: “committed to mobile just as much as we are to PCs.” That “just as much” is a rhetorical equalizer meant to calm a loyal base without alienating the next one. PCs aren’t being abandoned, but they’re no longer the unquestioned default. It’s also an implicit admission that commitment is a choice, not a destiny. Companies “commit” when their old advantages (distribution, software ecosystems, user habits) stop being guaranteed.

In context, Glaser reads as a leader from the software/media world watching screens multiply and attention splinter. Mobile isn’t just a smaller PC; it’s a different relationship to content: shorter sessions, more personal presence, new gatekeepers (carriers, app stores), different monetization (ads, subscriptions, microtransactions). The quote’s real intent is strategic legitimacy: to claim the future without conceding the past, and to tell the market, “We understand where the audience is going, and we plan to follow them there.”
