I don't really care if they can no longer run their business. We have more than enough musics and movies on this planet to enjoy for a thousand lifetime.
The music and entertainment industry need consumers more than we need them.

- nooneelse 15y agoThe creation of art is a basic human impulse. Art of many types would continue to exist and flourish without the "publishers or the industry infrastructure" as we know them today. Far from needing government to underwrite economic inducements to ensure that, it would have to legislatively ban art and have stern policing of such bans to have any hope of eradicating art and artists.
