make all the money from selling it all those medium without artifically inflating any of it, by extending the media monopoly to the medium.
if you would make x dollars if the medium competed, and x+y by limiting Medium competition then y represents abusing fair use.

So if the industry adopted this and provided free backups for life for content you have paid for then, in theory, torrent sites should have no reason to exist because everyone out there would have access to whatever they wanted in whatever format they wanted for whatever price they were willing to pay. Correct? The torrent sites should then naturally just fade away and be something of the past right?
