Hell, as the internet speeds up and super-broadband is everywhere and super reliable (never down due to back up servers etc.) we'll probably not even download files but just pay for access to files we can stream instantly anytime and anywhere.

There's a full on digital revolution and in 50 years, 100 years etc. people won't be buying music, movies, books etc. They'll just be paying for unlimited access to them.
There's a quick and easy way to make sure people know Oceana has always been at war with Eurasia keep absolute control over content. This is really all any of us are arguing, control. Publishers control content to make money but could also just as easily do it or hide something or put forth a non monetary agenda. You take away DRM they scream and cry about piracy and the poor authors who mostly aren't getting anything more than their advance anyway.

Are you a publisher? if not why do you want them having control over content, there's certainly not right to profit only the right to try.
