regulating intellectual "property" will only become increasingly difficult to protect and regulate as the technology for recording, copying, and disseminating information improves. In order to regulate intellectual "property", you need to gimp information technology with DRM.

I don't deem the existence of intellectual "property" necessary, in fact I predict its existance will become infeasable to uphold.

That's about how I feel. I think it's worth noting that humans seem to go through cycles of securitization, that makes 'all the sense in the world' in their time. But, which becomes abhorrent, or nonsensical as the fashions change over time.
