If copyright was absolute

Marco Arment, maker of Instapaper, asks and answers what would happen if copyright were perfectly enforceable 100 percent of the time:

Today’s demand for permissively licensed content is nearly zero because most people can get away with small-scale infringement. If that were no longer possible, all of these infringements would be replaced by much more demand for permissively licensed content. Any publishers unwilling to satisfy the demand would be left in the dust by those who would.
