ninety nine cents is probably still a bit too high. I dislike advertisements as well, even though I realize that your post as well as mine is an advertisement in its own way.
What you are asking for is an abolishment of copyright as it pertains to a current form of intellectual property. I agree with you here. Personally I feel there is enough "money" going around to fuel the creators and then some. Buying some cloud space to store television shows along with other things would probably work pretty good.
We will have to be convinced that we are paying for the space and not show.
