Copyright isn't going away anyway soon and with the way things are going, we are going towards a future where Disney basically owns everything. I don't find that very desirable.
NFTs provide a way out of this, as the rights holder is no longer the one who completely controls the content. Once they sold a copy, it can circulate in the used market, completely outside their control. This also makes it much easier for new players to enter the market, as they do not need to Disney's permission to resell used copies.
- gaganyaan 5y agoBut Disney is just going to tell Netflix they can't do that, and then lobby for laws to enforce that. Then NFTs will be as useless as they are now. The only real option is to stridently reject the false premise of "copyright". Otherwise, you're playing a sucker's game where the mouse always wins.
