The rest of your comment is unrelated and somewhat unhinged, and appears to be going off into a general complaint about advertising, it has nothing to do with copyright.

Now go ask the other 99% of the population what they watched this year? > The rest of your comment (...) has nothing to do with copyright. It has to do with concentration of power, of which copyright (and any kind of "intellectual property") is one of the favorite instruments from big corporations. I also used to fall for this "people are free to choose" techno-libertarian bullshit. The problem is that it is not in the interest of all the corporations for you to choose responsibly. They make the game so complex and so energy consuming that eventually people break in one way or another. "Copyright enforcement" only benefits the big players and the corporate world.
