Sounds good on (e)paper.

However, if what you say is true, the quality of fiction, the quality of research, and the general quality of world knowledge will all take a dive.

When you are a kid living with your parents (I am not saying you are), this kind of "information wants to be free" attitude makes sense. When you are a parent trying to take care of children of your own, pay for a home, food and the other necessities of life, the rule of law and the importance of intellectual property make a lot more sense.

The technology you think will enable this new world order could not be created or maintained in the world you describe.
