What if there were an auction and escrow site where people and orgs could jointly bid on #nonfree content to become relicensed under a #copyfree, #copyleft or #publicdomain license? And creators could cache out when they think the bid is high enough?
I'm mainly thinking of documentaries, where for instance #Arte, #BBC, together with private, crowdfunding donors could come to an agreement who pays how much. Instead of this current habit of #depublicating works after some months or so. 1/2
