Ok - I will give you a reason
MS will include anti-spam, anti-virus etc. into their OS, and ISPs/companies will filter/monitor all mail traffic for spam and virus... They will do this, because it will have a positive impact on customer loyalty, and increase sales vs. products/services which do not have these features.
Ofcourse spammers will still be able to send spam, but the "good" mail address will be hard to mass mail.
From Microsoft:

PressPass: Do you envision the spam problem changing in any way over the next year or two?
Arbogast: Our hope is that within 18 to 24 months we'll all have to worry much less about spam. As the financial returns for spammers - which are considerable today - decrease, spamming will lose its appeal. Technology has already made it much more expensive for spammers to ply their trade, and over the next few years, I'm confident we can make spamming so unattractive a business that our customers will find themselves almost spam-free.
