Then there is the ever increasing internet "mail order" shopping business, which I believe will generate a big chunk of change for the delivery services. The problem, for the consumer, is that the courier companies are probably going to offer good deals to large mail order companies to be their exclusive shipper. Since the almighty dollar talks, once that happens the courier company is going to have to screw up badly and often to get the mail order company to change.
