Hopefully not a problem as long as the internet and translators/subtitlers exist.
Fansubs are ok but I often prefer to buy anime because:

1) I like to choose whether I want to watch the dubbed or subbed version and I don't want to be forced down the subbed route only.

2) Companies generally do a better job of displaying subtitles too. There've been a number of fansubs where the subtitles were too small or were an unusual colour or font that made them difficult to read from a distance.

3) I like special features, I thought the commentaries on Boogiepop Phantom and the Evangelion movies were particularly good. Maybe if companies added more special features people would be more tempted to buy them rather then download.
