the adaption is how to change your content so that when people do that stuff you still make money.

You can call it what you want, it's taking someone else's work and taking it upon yourself to determine how they chose to have it distributed....which is for free.
Radio stations pays for the rights to broadcast the music, so it isn't really "free" it's subsidized by advertisers.
If someone refused to put their shit on tape and they CHOOSE to lose money from the VCR, it's their right to do so...it's not your right to do it for them.
If an artist wants to give their music away for free or allow their movies to be watched for free, it's their call, not yours.
How do you get this notion that you can decide how someone monetizes or chooses not to monetize from new technologies? What gives YOU the right to determine that for someone else's work, regardless of how many other avenues of income they have?
