Great, well-thought-out article, Jared.

One question though, can you demonstrate your statement, "Information can be copied infinitely without... devaluing...it?" It seems to me that the more there is of something (anything), the less it is valued by others. Even things that are perceived to have value...like gold, silver or even water...if there is an abundance of it, the less it is "valued" by others. In some cases, an over abundance of something tends to become despised in the eyes of those who once ascribed value to that thing.
