>I believe what we are headed for, if this trend continues, is not an era where everyone makes art and gives it out for free just because nobody allows them to turn a profit from it, no, this communist fairytale is not going to happen. Sure, there will be some people who continue to make art for free, just for the sake of making art. But that will be the equivalent of fiddle music. It won't be the BEST art. It will be average, rough and sketchy.


How about you go to pixiv.net or DeviantArt.com and check it yourself how communist fairytale is happening right on your screen, instead of talking nonsense?

>The ones who take pride in their skill and talent will move to whatever venues reward that skill and talent. We'll go back to a time where only the very rich will be able to afford art like that, where the rich will hire the best artists to make art only for them, and they will hold it on private servers or in vaults and otherwise hoard it and keep it for themselves.


and how do you think those super rich people will find out if they are hiring the best artist or if there is some noob who holds a pencil in his hand for the first time in his life?
If you wish to be hired by some super rich guy you will be required to provide a decent portfolio of your work for free to prove that you are best of the best.
And also when you make art for that rich guy he will most likely share it with everyone anyway as that is the main point of ordering art in the first place. and in that situation, he will be an owner of your work, not you.
