Here’s a story from my days at Motorola Labs around 2009 that you might find relevant: we were looking at ways for streaming content to homes (Moto owned a set-top box business at that time) and there were big debates about the future of streaming. The position that prevailed was that consumers would not be able to stream content to their heart’s content en masse because content providers would never let it. I distinctly remember a presentation poster that said you couldn’t stream because it’s against the law, hence use our solution, etc. Moral of the story for me is that if there’s adequate money to be made laws, protocols, etc. can totally be changed.
