How will the Do Not Call list affect telemarketers?

From Apryl Duncan, for About.com

Question: How will the Do Not Call list affect telemarketers?
Answer: One telemarketing trade group predicts 2 million jobs will be lost. Others say their call centers won't be affected and their telemarketing efforts will just have to be more creative.

Sykes Enterprises Inc., one of the largest calling companies, says you'll probably see a heavy increase in direct mail and spam. The hope for these telemarketers is that you'll call them after receiving offers for free vacations and discounted items.
