Sounds nice, but they’d definitely find some way of gaming the rules so that it ended up going to shit as a concept.
The kinds of people running Amazon-MGM-Paramount-Skydance-Disney-Blackrock-StateStreet-Vanguard are the sort of psychopaths that would deliberately sabotage it just to teach those pesky legislators a lesson about trying to tell them what to do.
Maybe a better idea would be to add public screening of movies over 30 years old under Fair Use, and require studios to share their movies with a copyright library in order to maintain copyright protection for streaming/dvd so that they can’t just DRM the thing itself.
Always seemed insane to me that copyright terms have been extended to the stage where the only people making a profit off a work are people who had nothing to do with its creation.
