I think copyright protection / discussions for music and movies will be less relevant in the future because of, as innerspacecowboy points out, the rising popularity of streaming services like Spotify, Google Music or Netflix. I believe such services will outcompete the "need" for copyright piracy.

Streaming services, radio stations, those who make movies etc. pay royalties and buy licences to use others works of art.
