Because all the large media companies want to protect the copyright and inflated prices of music and video, there is a possible result that nobody seems to have considered: They will simply fade away and be replaced by a completely new industry which is happy with large volumes, lower prices and completely new artists.
My sense is that there is a vast pool of talent out there available to replace the few megastars. The one question I have: How will I get the know about new artists? Who will editorialize and review them for me?
