Ah the false implication that if we don't pay then things won't get done. That's a fallacy. People will always make content, they only stop if they need to work to survive and have no time. If they are paid for creating, they will create even more. If they are paid to create what they are told they won't be able to create what they would want to.
When content is controlled and a company has the right to decide what and when and how something is created that's when content and services get worse over time. Disney is a huge money making machine based on monopolistically controlling content, stories, characters... Disney's services and products will only get worse no matter who pays or doesn't, despite the love and effort put by the workers, because decisions are made based on corporate greed and maximising revenue. No one but Disney can create a marvel movie, if I would, I'd get sued into oblivion.
