Will copyright become extinct in 2020?

I found this infograph through Twitter. The image is from BusinessInsider.com and the original content is from NowAndNext.com. While the note says to not take it seriously, we have to wonder if copyright will - at some point - become "dead" because it no longer serves a need.

You have to read all the way to the end to get the joke.

Addie, true...it gets humorous towards the right hand side, but it is interesting to think when certain items or ideas will no longer be necessary (or become extinct). Could there be a point when copyright is no longer necessary? Or when our forms of communication and innovation no longer rely on that ideal?
