I think it will primarily be determined by who can support (fund) the artists who are making the content people want to watch.<p>Of course, easy, essentially-free, world-wide distribution will make it harder for RIAA and MPAA to maintain control over the flow of mainstream art.<p>Viewer-funded (or even mini-investor funded) models could be viable. I&#x27;d imagine they could even compete favorably with large production studios if the right structure was found.
