@sheilaoflanagan @gamesbymanuel That's the thing: as much as the debate was presented to be about the creators, it's always been about the corporations exploiting their work. Music piracy tanked to almost nihil the moment streaming services appeared, and did that mean artists were paid more regularly, better, or more fairly? Nope, instead the platforms squeezed most of them more and more, transferring the business from the big discographic companies to themselves.
