Our society rewards madness with copious amounts of cash. We really are objectively doing something wrong. Step back and look at the machine and ask where the design flaw is. Personally I think it’s the intellectual property law religion.
The single point of failure imo is public art being “owned” privately. It should all be fan films and crowd funding and no one should need anyone’s permission to make or consume art. Art should be treated like science. Record credit and respect creators, but the information belongs to us all.
Innovation should not be contingent on anyone’s permission, especially not for reasons of profit.
