I could see a counter argument to this one, thanks to lawyers. There’s a lot of money in pricing differently by country, and from that stems licensing agreements and the like. And then you eventually end up with an “American” version and “European” version of the same digital asset. And then DRM gets slapped on to control who gets what version, and maybe you even charge in the native currency to make those deals just flow. The best counter to that is for the creators to keep control of distribution and that frees them to use what they want for payment directly from the consumer. I too would like to hope that digital-native assets would have global reach by default; but I think distribution channels will matter, and channels with lots of people looking to skim off a piece will set very different rules from direct, artist-first channels.
