Hardly. But since this would shut down an industry that has specialized on acting on behalf of the creators, ultimately the creators would spend more time, work, and worries on securing a living.
Somehow it works in the opposite direction with music: MP3 proliferations hit CD sales hard, but in the end "the creators" (you know, people who actually create music) have gotten bigger piece of a pie.
I'm not saying it's a sure thing, but the fact that at least in one case the result is that "creators now spend less time, work, and worries on securing a living" is telling.
