I expect within my lifetime that multi-gigabit ethernet will become
commonplace in the household LAN environment and that when that
becomes reality, localized IP Multicast over multi-gigabit ethernet
will eventually supplant HDMI as the primary transport for audio/video
streams between devices (sources such as BD players, DVRs,
computers, etc. and destinations such as receivers/amps, monitors,
speaker drivers, etc.).

The only reason you got HDMI at all was because the content owners managed
to get HDCP included.  You won't get a replacement that doesn't do HDCP until
we fix the sorry state of copyright in the US.

So it's equivalent to asking if we're going to fix copyright within your lifetime... :)
