i think now (2009) it's still fresh, raw and exciting, however in say 2015. I wonder what the scene will be like, here's my predictions (like any other scene)
* the godfathers of the scene skream, burial, and whoever thinks they're legendary will stop caring about the music and care about being a 'big name' getitng lots of £££$$$, appearing on flyers that the teens at the time will recognise as being "dubstep legends"
*the music will some how become formulated and all sounding the same (allready begining to happen)
* you'll have adverts on tv for "dubstep 2006-2008 the CLASSICS' avaliable at Tescos
*you'll have very bad remakes of 'classic 06-08 dubstep' in here AND/OR [insert new musical genre here] remixes of 'classic 06-08 dubstep'
* if youtube is still going in 2020, we'll be the ones with the grey hair commenting: "it isn't like it used to be, i remember the days of 06-08, everything after was shit, these teenagers don't know shit!!"

if you're worried about music, I'm worried about you.

I'm more concerned at the state of the economy and impending doom in the form of food shortages & the west finally deciding to become a police state following chinas success

"DUBSTEP" is dead.
I am sick and tired of the word "dub" having anything to do with halfstep wobblers.

i think dubstep is headed to the right direction for a couple of years to come at least

not only did Nostradamus predict that this would happen, he also predicted someone would post such a waste thread about it. seriously

yes of course. you see all the garage legends on bills purely for money don;t you. lets say back int he day there were 10 releases and 1 was shit, now theres 100 and 10 are shit. its the same theres just more to filter through.

Music always changes and always will. Look at D&B right now, Instra:Mental and people are doing new stuff but I'm sure there will be bandwagon jumpers galore and it's the same with wobbly dubstep etc. Just look out for good new music because there always will be people doing good, new and interesting stuff, you just have to find it. Be optimistic about the future because there's plenty of good stuff to come, I'm sure...

we should just stop the development of the scene all together and live off represses of DMZ releases
