Thankfully a lot of people have a movie making machine in their pockets (cell phone). Content will eventually be produced by the masses, competing against the behemoth media companies. Barring that, local community theatre productions. Maybe get a cheap CD player or two and put it in the back closet and then start collecting CD's again. There is more stuff in media history to consume than there is new stuff being produced. A lot of it is better.

And it will be owned by one of the many monopolies.

Put on in a theatre owned by Ticketmaster.

Be positive! Anything is possible. The people will rise up once again! The underground is now more powerful than the mainstream due to the "societal" shift into absurdity. Blood is more powerful than a token representing dubious value.

Normally when the people rise up they're slaughtered. When rich countries go through major changes normally there's a lot of chaos and blood before things get better. If you're someone who lives in one of those countries it's better if you can ride the chaos out somewhere else. In fact, in a country where things are getting bad, it's generally a good idea to get out long before the chaos starts.
