>"pirating" will become something that is seen as morally wrong by society Quite the opposite. Society will wake up and realize that sharing information, culture and art is the farthest thing from "morally wrong". Sharing is probably one of, if not the most universally ethical action a human being can undertake. You will be hard pressed to find a culture - modern or historical - where this is not the case. It is sickening how far the - for a lack of a more appropriate word - propaganda of the copyright industry has twisted society's most basic perception of morality, though I must applaud them for their efficiency in spreading their misguided beliefs. It is not that we, as humanity, will one day realize that sharing - quite probably the very act that brought us this far - is something evil that needs to be stopped. We will wake up, and realize in disgust how a single industry controlled our shared heritage for almost 5 centuries, and declare that this mistake must not be repeated - that art, culture and information cannot be owned by anyone, and must be free for everyone to access, process and hand on. That will be the day we finally get rid of copyright, of patents, and other forms of nonsensical "Intellectual Property", passing on to our children how this was one of the worst mistakes in our history. I look forward to that day, and let me say with confidence that we will one day arrive at it. You cannot suppress human nature, just as much as you cannot bring order into chaos.
