Zero Marginal Cost Society, Jeremy rifkin

25 years ago no one would predict that you could communicate almost for free with anyone in the world through what's up, Skype or email. No one would guess that you could send videos or pictures to a friend in the other side of the world for free.! No one.
Jeremy Rifkin predicts that Culture & learning will be totally free. Why pay huge amounts of money to attend a second tier school if you can learn from the best teachers worldwide on-line and listen again and again until you get it? Don't pay a lot to take a course the old fashion way.
Learn to learn online, it's the future (not to distant)
In music no one will listen to a lousy orchestra if you can listen to Yuja Wang or Kissin online for free.
Average teachers and musicians/performers will be without job
it was always bad to be average but in the digital world it's even worse.
