      I would really, really like people to explain to me how it's traditionally published authors who suffer MOST from piracy and the perception that "text files shouldn't cost money" Text files not costing money is WHY self-publishing online is impossible, was over before it started https://twitter.com/inthesedeserts/status/1245095054148067334 …

      It's an inescapable catch-22 - either nobody's heard of you so nobody reads you one way or another Or the way people find out about you is passing around your shit, at which point there's no reason to pay you because they've already consumed your stuff

      And the shills for the Brave New World talk like it's a BASIC LAW OF NATURE that this is how it works and that the only people who EVER get paid SHOULD BE the top 1%, the ones who've maxed out getting paid "in exposure" until they've got hardcore fans who will pay out of love

      They talk like the idea of a middle ground between 1% and all the zeros below NEVER EXISTED and is IMPOSSIBLE because they've been so brainwashed by digital reality "Record labels never signed bands who hadn't already gone viral, why would they do that, what would be the point"

      Like there never was a world where, if you could afford it, you would pay ten bucks for an album "just to check it out" and if you didn't like it, oh well, you were out ten bucks The whole concept of a "middle class" of either producers or consumers is extinct It's terrifying

      The middlemen who provide the infrastructure and curation are making money hand over fist and bragging about their shiny offices with an on-site chef and beer kegs in the break room Literally everyone else in the whole world is not doing so hot
