P2P Foundation: Does peer production destroy profits?

This is a crucial statement, below: P2P Foundation  Does peer production destroy profits?

How true:  "In my own formulation it says that we now have a society, where the creation of use value grows exponentially, but the growth of monetization of this use value grows only linearly.."

THAT is the real challenge for next-generation media business models.

Another quote:  "Is this perhaps what is happening in the Linux economy, of which it is said that it creates about $36b, but also destroys about $60b in the value of proprietary companies..."

Your take?
