The argument was "It's the robbery of all of our culture to sell it back to us at a mark-up".

Remove the "selling" part, and force them to give the weights away for free, and at least it's no longer robbery that few rich people benefit from.

Kind of like how public and free torrent piracy is easier to morally and ethically defend than piracy where they sell access to pirated content.

I think we're past the point were we can feasible pay for "IP-protected bytes" digitally, better to just move past the concept. It's been slowly disappearing for a long time now already, most of us make most of our money on live events and other AFK activities rather than actually selling our art, maybe time for the rest to get onboard with this too.
