There's a new article in Forbes magazine questioning whether the whole
idea of 'property' is about to change.

2020
Consumers Will Share Everything
Lisa Gansky, 09.09.10, 06:00 PM EDT
Fewer and fewer people will own cars, appliances and homes, opting
instead for shared access to transportation, entertainment and
shelter.

As more companies and individuals discover the ease and economy of
services like these, they will begin shedding the expenses and hassles
associated with ownership. By 2020 billions of people will routinely
opt for shared access to superior transportation, food, finance,
shelter, recreation and entertainment over having to own a car, a
bike, numerous appliances, recreation gear or, in some cases, a home.
