Is music piracy really 'rampant'? My sense is that cheap legal streaming services have won the day. The original itunes model of $1+ per song is gone.$10-$20 C

Yes cheapskates can still torrent music and maintain their own digital archives. But for ease of use you cannot be spotify and equivalents.
Spotify beats piracy.
The same needs to happen for TV, movies, and live sport. (for a while there Netflix made pirate bay obsolete for me)
In the disruption alot of old school middle-men are going to lose big. But overall there should be confident streams of revenue, even more than you can get with outdated 1990s cable TV pay-per-view systems.
