Interesting ideas, I wonder if that means we see more or fewer re-mix movies. Lately, Hollywood seems to have found a cheat code where they make lots of sequel and three-quel movies instead of coming up with entirely new stories to tell.
I wonder if we'll form markets for "authentic" content like we form markets for authentic collectibles.
Appreciate the European perspective too, I was more thinking about Asia.
It's a great question. I think we'd see far more versions of very popular stories, like there would be hundreds of Marvel and Star Wars movies by now, but fewer remakes of more minor properties.

Will depend on the individual desire? Say you don't care and just want cheap entertainment on your phone while Copilot is answering your emails for you: you may see more and it doesn't matter. Just don't want to be bored. Someone else, however, will be too busy answering their emails so they don't have time for slop and they watch much less movies, but authentic only, and they pay for that.

I think that we could say that Spotify and Netflix are markets for authentic content, just it's not transactional. The question will be how they're going to react: subscription price 10x and walled garden (which in turn may incentivize some more piracy), or less curation, more slop.
