So many kids living in poverty that would’ve never been able to afford such content have their days slightly less miserable because of piracy. Its not like the corporations are losing a penny, those kids would never be able to pay for it anyways, not in this world of extreme under-regulated capitalism.
(Also, in a perfect world, there wouldn’t be poverty, and there would be a fair system to reward the actual content creators, not just the corporation that happens to owns the rights to the concept of that particular Movie/TV Show)
My Hypothetical Policy would be:
If a thing doesn’t show up in a store for a time totaling 5 years, it should be able to be freely copied without repercussion.
So if you publish a thing, you need to keep selling it. Once you pause the sales, timer starts to tick, until you resume sales (in good faith, no intentionally limiting quantities of items), whenever you pause sales again, timer begins to tick again, once the 5 year timer is up, no more protections.
And theres also the normal copyright expiration to factor in as well. (Which I think should be somewhere around 10-20 years after initial publication, no extensions)
I think this is quite a fair policy.
Edit: Also, they can’t set the price to more than 150% of the average pricing of the item. (Almost forgot this loophole of intentionally “selling” the item at high prices but not actually wanting to continue selling)
