Well then, if the trend is towards paper-based as opposed to electronic
distribution (with all the advantages that entails), you can sit back, sip
your favorite beverage and enjoy me chomping pulp. :-) What will you do if
you're wrong?

As long as we realize that this conflict (established vs. emerging interests
in IP rights) is about money, not about technology or ontology, then I'm
satisfied.

I'm betting on emerging interests winning. How about you?

Best,
