Cheeky,

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that video and music and other copywritten material will be distributed and SOLD over the web. And you are right - once we all have high speed connections we'll all get our entertainment this way. However there is a distinction between getting it for free i.e. stealing it, and paying for the download.

If it's free - it's illegal unless the producer has given the material away or it's public domain.
