On a personal note, I suspect that once the world's internet infrastructure comes up to speed, we'll all be using on-demand subscription models and the notion of buying content to keep will feel archaic. Even so, more needs to be done to protect the public from ham-fisted copyright industries demanding payment for everything. By the time the infrastructure is in place, high-capacity media will be so much more affordable that one can cram hundreds, if not thousands of shows/movies/music and view them locally, without requiring a network streaming connection. It is all about distribution.
