I didnt disagree with that part. Youre missing the part where theres nothing stopping fans from giving the author money instead.

How are they finding fans?

The same way they are now?

By not having their work stolen and published under a different author?

Stolen before its ever been published? I think yall are getting tripped up with thinking corporations can see the future and can steal something that will become successful but has not yet been discovered by any readers. If its successful enough to be stolen, its already successful.
