Everything is being designed so that every time you use it, someone gets paid. You think Google is going to stash your tunes for free?
Similarly like the move to credit cards, going to a cashless society, every time something is bought or sold, the banks get paid.
I do not like this "virtual" society so much. No more photographs, no more private music ownership. What will our ancestors find about us when we are long gone? Nothing. All the family pictures and history was on that old obsolete computer you threw out when you sold the folks house. Those boxes of photographs in the attic will soon be a relic of the past. We will become the invisible society.
Thank God folks are pushing back on e-books....
