i've never thought that the zeros and ones were in reference to literal numbers, be it computers, album sales, whatever. but the song has always served to remind me that everything, eventually, will either last (1) or come to nothing (0). money is part of it, but i think he may be talking about something bigger.
"will either last (1) or come to nothing (0)" that is taking your own very unique meaning to the song and while it might be useful to you, it is highly unlikely Derek would use it that way. very few people would sit down and think ... zeros and ones... that must mean "will either last (1) or come to nothing (0)". how can zero's and ones not be in reference to computers? or the computerization for society? where else do we think about zeros and ones? i don't think it makes any sense...
