I am certain D&D is going to die. Certain.
The core of what D&D has become is too easily replaced by virtual gaming - MMO or Peer-to-Peer - as it improves it flexibility. Tabletop D&D is expensive, clunky, and difficult to set up.
OTOH, that isn't to say that the bulk of tabletop RPG might not remain D&D-like or D&D-themed games - I kind of think the "new old school" games have that potential. At their best they're light and fast and fun - more importantly, they're more personal, like (other) indie games. That seems important.
