When I was kid... Let's start with the appropriate dinosaur's tone:
HAEEEM HAEM.
"Once upon a time, in a kingdom far far away, and another century (literally) existed books, comics, cartoons and shit, also written and drawn by authors to make a living.
BUT!
How blessed were they that their works couldn't be shared for free worldwide on the internet, as such a demonic system didn't exist!!!!
They'd make shit tons of money selling their books because it was the only way to read them and live happily rich ever after!!!
Just kidding, one bought a book and everybody borrowed it, as for the not-so-poor-but-not-rich-either, they'd buy a very expensive free pass for local libraries and read shit there.
The only difference between then and now is that authors' work rarely crossed any borders and no one ever even thought of " supporting the authors" lol.
No offense huh but this generation is a little dramatic in my old ass's opinion.
