They pay for it with a fee, that can be a on time in life fee, a recurring one, a tax, whatever.
Whenever he access a content, a user agree to give a feedback on it (or to make the present receiver give a feedback). That feedback consist in a rating.
The Entity in charge just collect the feedbacks from the users. And compensate the authors according to the number of users and the rating obtained.
If you've got a high quality file freely available (and if you've got at least one legal content, you've paid for everything), you won't be interested in piracy.
And if you really like a work, you will give high rating to compensate the author and make him/her produce more.
If the system have a upper limit on the income for the single content, there's enough money for every author.

a) Who give this entity money?
b) In which way does this differ from the communistic model, of a goverment instition picking people who are to write stuff...
