The discovery of neutrino oscillations is a major milestone in the history of neutrino physics. Another major step forward in our understanding of physics within and beyond the Standard Model is offered by the neutrino beams from a neutrino factory. The neutrino factory is a new concept for producing neutrino beams of unprecedented quality in terms of intensity, flavour composition, and precision of beam parameters. These beams enable the exploration of otherwise inaccessible domains in neutrino oscillation physics by exploiting baselines of planetary dimensions. Suitable detectors pose formidable challenges but are within reach with only moderate extrapolations from existing technologies. An interesting spectrum of further opportunities ranging from high-precision, high-rate neutrino scattering to physics with high-intensity low-energy muons comes with the neutrino factory. Neutrino oscillation physics at other facilities which might become available well before the neutrino factory, will also be discussed. Ideas abound on neutrino super-beams, beta-beams, and the use of conventional neutrino beams in off-axis mode.
