Lawrence Lessig did a speech a while ago about the read-write web:

In that, he talks about how, when the phonograph came out, people were up-in-arms that it would destroy the performance and enjoyment of music as a social thing, which clearly happened. The music world is changing back to that again, and I'm kind of glad.
Also, he does a bitching powerpoint.
