I think there is an opening for bitcoin merchant services but more from a bricks-and-mortar/POS type perspective (bitcoin->fiat conversion optional), with zero-confirmation transaction acceptance and double-spend protection/insurance. The number of people who still say "bitcoin will never work in bricks-and-mortar stores because you have to wait 10 minutes or an hour" makes me believe that this is a niche that needs to be filled.
Of course, maybe this already exists or someone is already working on it but I just haven't heard about it.

One word.
Porn.
Anonymity, ease of use (you can do it all with just one hand), I don't see any disadvantages. I'm surprised more porn sites don't accept BtC. Or maybe they do, I don't cruise porn sites. Anyway.

I think we'll see more of everything in the coming years, but I could see digital media products really being big with btc.

Everybody always looks back in hindsight and thinks "I should have done that". With bitcoins still being at the very beginning of its existence, what hasnt been done with it yet that will be big in the future?
