By fighting copyright itself and vote against those of our representatives not representing our interests, since that's really the only way we'll ever stop OUR politicians from extending copyrights every time a Disney copyright is about to run out. (said statement may not be factually correct, but just used as an example for how the industry dictates the terms rather than us).

Without copyright, I feel that all prices would immediately move to Zero, extremely virtuous IMO. The incentive to create could still be monetary, although for many creators, I suspect this has never been the impetus for content creation.
Only the most creative of content would be rewarded. All the rest would be relegated to the bin, sorted through by those who have the time to sort. This act of sorting would itself be content creation, and could be incentivized as well.
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for politicians to act virtuously.
