The way it's gone down so far:
1) There is no way phone companies are going to let people communicate for free.
2) There is no way the music industry is going to let people listen to music for free.
3) There is no way the porn industry is going to let people jerk off for free.
4) There is no way the motion picture industry is going let people watch movies for free.
5) There is no way the cable televison networks are going to let people get tv for free.
6) There is no way the banks are going to let people create and control their own currency for free
The internet has decentralized practically everything it's gotten it's hands on.
Currency is just the latest thing that seems to be switching hands from big corporations to the people.
