This take is wrong. What’s really going to happen is that content creators will still create content, despite the economics making less and less sense.

.. mainly that’s because that’s the only game left

There are a lot of artists and creators that create while they work in a job not related to what they create.

Money is not the only motivation to create.

I might even prefer those that make content for love of the thing and not for profit. I am not against them making a living. But There is enough of examples that in long run jus ending up worse. Maybe with higher "production quality". But worse in other ways that matter.
