Chess 960 is the future?

I think todays GMs tend to not play chess at all anymore. Due to pc usage they more often know the lines up until the end. In the near future, may chess960 become more popular than classic chess?

Chess 960 is the ideal tiebreaker and drawbreaker. Standard chess will stay to keep chess books publisher in business.

Chess960 will not replace chess but coexist with it. As Mandy711 says, the only thing holding it back now is the profit motive of the industry that profits out of the opening book fashion industry.

Well, I'd say the main target of that industry are us amateurs, and amateurs don't need any drawbreaker though.

What you said is basically the same argument as Yasser Seirawan at Showdown in St Louis last year:

Yasser Seirawan: "You know one of the things, I've spoken to a lot of my colleagues on this very question. One of the things is a lot of my colleagues feel it has to do with amateur players. That is to say amateur players are so vested in their openings, they want to see players playing the French defenses and their Sicilian dragons and they know those openings so very well, they want the players to play their favourite openings and favourite defenses. Instead, when the players are playing a game of Fischer random, then a lot of the amateur players say "gee I don't know this position, I don't know what's going on". A lot of the professional players like Fischer Random and would like to see more Fischer random events. Its sort of like the organizers are hearing from the amateurs "no don't do it we want them to play OUR openings, OUR defenses". Its kind of an intriguing idea right?"

Except that even though amateurs don't need any drawbreakers (because they blunder a lot), still, they like to memorise openings in an attempt to minimise the blunders - and they are willing to pay money for that.

.....Or, if they are not willing to pay money to see their favourite openings played by the pros, they become the objects of advertising dollars, which perpetuates the chess opening fashion industry.

 chess960 should be the future 

Fischer was right: chess960 (Fischer random) and increment (Fischer clock) are the future.
