This would lead to a society where there is no incentive to create any new digital goods.

The patronage "platform" would be the new Apple/Google and would likely be riddled with corruption

While my original comment is not my best work by any stretch (sorry), I implore you to reconsider the idea that all motivation is monetary (it's absolutely not) and that patronage must happen on a "platform" that will become corrupt in some way. I think discounting the possibility of novel systems that tackle these problems out of hand is not a good way to start.
