i believe the only reason it hasn't hurt the sale of burnable dvd's is the fact dvd rippers are not commonly known by regular people and the sale of downloadable content is just starting to become popular. our future will more than likely consist of a main server in it with every bit of data for the entire house with every picture, movie, music and what ever they can think of. i honestly could see it within the next 5-10 years becoming normal as well which is the crazy thing. it should be pretty awesome. just think a sling media type box that would wirelessly send all of our music and videos to our cars... no more ipods or clutter inside the car.... i know i'm getting a little carried away
