If I created a way to allow people who file share to bypass inflationary middlemen/content holders and get money directly to the artists, do you think that anyone would use it?

So the main point in favor of file sharing seems to be that people have various issues with the big companies who own the artist’s content, that lie between the artist and the audience. See this question. But if this system could be bypassed, do you think people would put their money where their mouth is?

Also, would this be impossible to do without betraying everyone’s location to the authorities?
