>Somehow this idea that you keep getting paid for literally the same thing over and over again for work you did once is the absurdity
meanwhile, most tech is moving towards subscriptions?
Art is getting paid "non-greedily". People buy a song or art piece, and then people 10 years later buy a song or art piece. That's not one person paying twice for the same song, it's two people buying the same thing.
If people still value that art for that price later, I don't see how this is a "greedy" thing. is art magically supposed to turn open source CC0 after 5 years? Tech sure doesnt work like that.
