You say this with such authority, but you are being naive yourself about the history of arts and economics. The window of history when art was considered "IP" that couldn't exist otherwise is vanishingly small, less than 100 years. Art survived and prospered somehow before IP laws, even after the printing press. IP is a construct created by capitalism to monetize art and information. It is not a real thing and it is not a necessary thing. People create things just fine without and industrial complex behind them, and if losing that is the cost of all art being accessible to everyone, I am fine with that deal.
