I predict our eventual move to the cloud will end 99.99% of piracy. CMV.

With Internet infrastructure slowly developing and improving, cloud solutions are slowly becoming more viable. Sooner or later, as we are moving with Microsoft's Office 365 and Adobe's Creative Cloud, pretty much all applications and games will run virtualized on a server. Screenshots of the applications will be sent from the server to your PC and any input will be sent from your PC to the server. We can already see this happening for games with Nvidia's shield streaming service.

With complete cloud solutions (we haven't quite reached this yet), the companies no longer provide you with a copy of the program code (in binary that is) and therefore in order to modify the application, you would have to either physically go to the server or hack the server which is incredibly hard and relies on a finite and shrinking amount of security holes created due to human mistakes.

Change my view.

That could only apply to utility software and video games, where the content is reliant on you getting interactive feedback. 

But for every medium that can exist as a single data file, it would still be easy to rip that data out of the cloud and play on any device without the servers.

But how do you end music piracy, if every MP3 file can contain copyrighted music? How do you end ebook piracy, if every PDF file can have the text of a book inside of it?
