I personally think it's more subjective to assume that I know what a product, that someone else has created, is worth. Stealing is what it is. If you think something is poorly priced, either steal it, or pass. In the end, you really are a product of your actions.
You are absolutely right about HD not needing to traverse the public internet, but then, we also don't need solar panels stuck to our rooftops. It's more about convergence and evolution, not who-needs-what.
P2P: Why is it that we fight so hard to continue stealing as efficiently as possible? Sure, I use it legitimately from time to time, but I'd say 90% of my P2P traffic is ill purposed.
HD-over-IP: A swimming pool that hundreds of millions of people all try to enjoy at once will _always_ be yellow. There must be regulations.
There is just no way to make such social phenomenon like the internet, equal, no matter how you play the cards.
