Pay por the permanent ownership of the sold product.
As they say. If selling isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing.
If a seller doesn't give me option to own their products I will certainly never steal them.
But how do you apply this to a platform like YouTube? I don't want to have to buy each video I watch.
Sell "seasons".
Put a prize on all videos released during each year. But once that's paid I can have those videos forever.
No point on having to pay a monthly subscription forever to watch a video made 10 years ago from a youtuber that's no longer active (maybe even alive).
