History repeats itself. About 20 years ago, the encyclopedia publishers began hurting with the advent of Windows/Mac and CD's and were finally pumelled with the combination of the Internet, www and Wikipedia. About 10 years ago, the newspaper and magazine publishers started hurting with the advent of the consumer web, search engines and the so called web 2.0 with its instant publishing capabilities. Today, Government data is beginning to be set free as it should be as it was originally paid for by taxpayers. The likes of ThomsonReuters and LexisNexis have built large profitable businesses on the back of taxpayer paid content. This is now coming to an end. Looking 10 years out, every legal case will be on Wikipedia with added value provided by law professors, students, lawyers and others. This will happen faster than people realize because there aren't that many precedent setting legal cases ... literally, the numbers in the US are in the 1 million range. Agree.
