    Consider a universal basic income as a means to reduced the profit motive when authors create/share media.

      Also consider not having an economy where our jobs dominate our lives.

      There’s plenty of studies, videos and anecdotes discussing how despite technology becoming more and more efficient, we work more hours a day in the Industrial era. Most of the older culture we consider traditional didn’t come from the media industries we see today, they came from families and communities having enough time to spend together that they can create and share art and other media relevant to their own lives.
