Will the analog out ever disappear?

With so much these days being about digital and HDMI this and USB that, will the L/R analog out that I have on every component I have one day disappear?

Your CruelKiller Dominance Mk. II might have the latest codecs, or ancient codecs, but it can output analog, it will work with anything else. Unless there's ever a truly universal digital standard, having an analog out seems to be something that will perpetuate.
