If you never pay for music, artists won’t be able to make new music
is fundamentally flawed. Nearly all artists don’t make more than pocket change at best.
Even if we were to abolish all copyright tomorrow and no one would every pay for art again, art would still exist and be published. Because as it turns out, people enjoy making art.
That’s not to say they shouldn’t be paid. Of course people should make a living by selling art. But OP saying art will cease to exist if there is no money is completely wrong.
That’s what I’m saying.
