Therefore it's becoming just like any other industry - the middle class is the guy making $60,000 working at Manwin. The middle class stays, the tradesman is really a relic of the 1800s who made a brief appearance online.
That sounds nice. But "industrialization" isn't what happened. Everybodies content being stolen, given away, monetized by pirates, and thus DEVALUING paysites is what happened.

STEALING is NOT "industrialization" and it really isn't comparable in any way.

Just because Fabian popped up on the scene and magically had a hundred million dollars to buy up shit and use stolen content/piracy to continue bringing in the revenue does NOT mean "industrialization"

It's easy to do when you don't have to actually earn the money and then build something from the ground up.

Stealing isn't a business model.
