2) As mobile usage grows, websites need to ensure their content is compatible with mobile interfaces and devices to stay competitive, including using responsive design and mobile apps.

If you cant support mobile devices then you are not considered a participant in ecommerce. The instantaneous aspect of technology is key. Consumers what there information, products and services now and with what they are familiar. With the integration of talk and brows on most phones consumers are multitasking more than ever. The laws in many stats banning the use of cell phones while driving is evidence. If you cant keep up with your customers needs you loose your completive edge.
As technology changes so does the demand for what fuels it. If there is no mobile content then apple cant sell and tablets and Motorola cant sell any smart phones.
Until the mobile devices get smarter not many websites work well without using some new technologies.
