There is no way on Earth that people playing by the existing rules of copyright law will be able to compete going forward.

You can bluster and scream and shout "Nonsense" all you want, but that's how it's going to be. Copyright is finished. When good models are illegal or unaffordable, only outlaws -- meaning hostile state-level actors with no allegiance to copyright law -- will have good models.

We might as well start thinking about how the new order is going to unfold, and how it can be shaped to improve all of our lives in the long run.
