There's someone who gets it. Bless. Honestly, though, I think a lot of artists and the actual creators of the content do get this, some more than others. It's the people who are profiting off of them - the publishers, the producers, the execs - who are the ones scared of all this, because they just don't understand it at all.
There's been a huge paradigm shift in the way people access entertainment, and the expectations they have. The old guard just hasn't caught on. I used to be hopeful that they would some day - with stuff like Hulu, it seemed they were - but with all that's happened recently, it seems we're heading sharply and quickly in the other direction.
