They are trying to send a message but the thing about it... As long as we have fitgirl and other artistès, and bittorrent is a thing, Jack shit they can do about it.
These people are our opressors, don't fund them.
Sail, teaches other to sail and if product is good, cut the corpo out and pay the people who provide the labour. Most musicians have other options to support them. Hollycreeps can get fucked, disgusting regime whores deserve no money.
Either way, they all colluding to fuck us but nice thing about media is that we can effectively fight back. Maybe we can learn some lessons for the other markets while at it.
Clearly lobbying the government as w2 peasant ain't a real thing anyway

There are lots of barriers to this. Artists are firewalled to make sure everyone else gets a cut first.
I general pirates tend to seek out direct support routes and undercut gatekeepers.
Make it easy enough for people to access media directly and cheaply without ads with minimal middlemen and the majority will take this route. These opportunities are rarer and rarer though.

Nebula/curiosity stream maybe? Patreon is interesting for this too, and is helping a lot of podcasters and video creators (more) directly.
