So live music only. Nothing recorded. All original pieces without sheet music or written lyrics. Nothing online or ever via a digital system with a memory function. No portable music players, not even 8-tracks. It would be one big ren faire of wandering bards creating ad hoc songs for coins.

Like hollywood I expect the music industry is full of unions, perhaps so full they'll come and break your fingers for being a scab.

I was thinking more that it would cause companies to have no choice but to chill out about copyright… but you’re kinda selling me on this vision instead.

I haven't played a piece from sheet music in years, and I still get stuff demonetized. You in fact have to know the common themes well enough to _avoid_ playing things that sound too much like them.
