However, there are workarounds as I have illustrated above.
The model of making expensive content and profiting long term by copyright royalty is going to become more and more limited.
I am working towards user generated content (not porn) in a broadcasting model -- disposable content with most revenue made advertising on the "first run" front end.
Digital media on the Internet has flooded the available content markets. There has been more entertainment content made in the past 20 years than was made in the last century. It is sort of like Moore's Law of content generation. There is a much increased world content making and consuming population connected by the Internet today -- harnessing, serving and profiting from that market is my business model for future development.

Agreed. The other coming wave is hostage content.
If George RR Martin announces he will release the next Game of Thrones novel for 'free' as an open source royalty free ebook that people can trade or share at will forever... as soon as he receives 5M in pre-orders... his site would hit that number in a matter of hours.
You'll also see more and more free content (especially porn) as a hook to sell other products rather than as a product itself.
It's a very different model and the only possible way to make money creating expensive content unless the culture changes again....
