We should just use crowdfunding instead. There's a lot of money you don't have for crowdfunds because of IP monopolies today. Hollywood wouldn't make as many high budget films, but it would remain a major hub for filmmakers who no longer need to appeal to entrenched business interests.

We'd get a lot of low budget but actually original films.
