Well, since that "reality" can only result in 2 things--an incredible lack of new content, when creators/producers (like me) simply abandon a leaky ship--and incredibly painful DRM on everything that's left--I can't see how the government, or consumers, will let copyright go, or not replace it with something that does copyright's job, but better.

I guess we'll see in the long run.
