When Internet, and Gaming systems become Interactive Broadcvast Television
Media systems, where No Matter where you are, you can play anything, You
either A: Have to put up with pointless advertising, or B: Pay through the
nose for Ad-Less content. or C: Goto a media outlet and play a
"Limited-Use" technologies.

Only in Education, or as part of an Open Software Source group, will you
see content that does not need to be protected.

This means the target group that is focussing on Piracy, will have nothing

As for MP3, that was a opportunity lost by some distributors. But Look for
those that adapt well. Especially with Audio Advertising. They will be the
leaders well into the year 2000 and beyond.
