This is is a bit different issue than with usual capitalism, because if I buy something I own that product. thus anyone who paid for any work is totally free to share it with everyone.

in principle, we could even start a service where we collect some money to buy one work from the artist then distribute it among ourselves at that tiny fraction of the sale price.

It is not theft just like if I buy a picture from artist and hang it on the wall where anyone can see it It is all fine same with other works where I am totally allowed to put them anywhere for other people to enjoy.

The system where the creator is allowed to control how their works are used is not capitalism that's some kind of tyranny. where you are paying not for the product but for the status and privileges. You pay to become a special person who has exclusive rights for doing something that other people are not allowed to do.
