Without copyright we would probably make mostly low-cost/small-scale art, of the type that can be achieved by a single person, and probably would not make big expensive collaborative projects like $100m+ blockbuster movies which are hard to bring into existence without a strong profit motive.

thank god. what was the last $100m+ movie you watched that you thought, wow, what a great piece of entertainment and/or art?

I could certainly do without big budget MCU slop, but Lord of the Rings? I am really glad that exists.
