I think society's perception of copyright is slowly changing. It doesn't perceive the sharing of media as morally unacceptable, despite whatever laws have been created in recent history. To share is human, and many of us are simply acknowledging this. It's unfortunate that some people, who've made their career from profiting from copyrighted works, may get caught up in the shift. In the not-too-distant future, I see a change from closed/copyrighted media creation, to independent and smaller budget works. It will mean the death of the blockbuster movie, and, heaven forbid, the death of the Britney Spears; but all in all, we'll return to a society much the same as we've had throughout history. Creativity can only thrive when we're allowed to share. Moreso, all creative works are derivatives of other creative works, no matter how unclear the link is.
