I had several other points to make about Disney and communal ownership, but the rest of them get pretty theoretical and start to miss the point so instead I'll refocus:
We, each of us who can access this network, have the ability to produce and distribute media at a quality and scale that was unimaginable for consumers in 1990 (and was hard to believe in 2000, and that was possible but slightly more expensive in 2010.)

In my pocket right now I have a cell phone running android that has a better camera on it than any television studio had prior to about 25 years ago, and at least as good as what most television studios were using in the 00s and into the 10s. (This is perhaps an overstatement. It is a worse camera in several meaningful respects: It has a smaller sensor, but that sensor is significantly more sensitive. It has a worse lens, but not *that much worse* aside from the size. But it can be made to produce footage that looks as good or better than any non-film camera used in television production prior to the mid 2010s, and most since then.)
