That's an absolutely good tradeoff. There's no longer any need for copyright. Patents should go next. Only trademarks can stay.

So you assign zero value to the process of creation?

Zero value to the process of production?

So people who write and produce books, shows and films should all do what? Give up their craft?

Bullshit. Read up and understand the history of these things and their benefits to society. There is a reason they were created in the first place. Over a very long time. With lots of thoughts into the tradeoff/benefits to society. That Disney fucked with it does not make the original tradeoff not a benefit to society.
