Napsterizing Education
To napsterize education, then, you need to somehow seize that credential-granting authority (or at least: make that authority non-exclusive), which would mean being able to offer some widely-accepted alternative credential system, or do something else that accomplished the same things; this would decouple measurement of educational attainment from the current institutional framework for granting such certification, and create an ecosystem in which alternative approaches can bloom.
