I'm not being childish, you're being ridiculous. This is a library, this is a concept that already exists. You're thinking too profit oriented, not everything has to be for profit. This is so that people have access to these things now and for generations to come. Copyright laws compromising the internet archive will mean loss of data over the next few generations. There is already so much lost media from the internet era, and so little is being done about it, aside from the awesome efforts of the internet archive.
This isn't about profits this is about preserving data from our era.
There's more to this argument but it's already been said in this thread and I don't feel like typing it out, and I doubt you'd change your mind anyway.
