That’s first step of capitalism.
When someone makes crazy profit, you’ll have fast followers.
More artist will switch.
Prices will drop.
At some point some artist will drop out and a rough equilibrium will occur.
Then one of the artist will lobby a law that limits the number of furry artist.
Prices go back up due to restriction.
People complain at high cost of furry art.
Licensed artist will lobby a new tax on all artist to subsidize the cost of furry art.
Now non furry artist are paying the furry artist.
Customers get confused on using tax vouchers on Furry artist.
Non furry artist who complain are now regularly attacked for not supporting the Arts.
