      Does copyright pay artists? As it seems to me it pays copyright holders collecting them like trading cards and Artists getting paid is more a side effect.

      Copyright concerns redistribution but if one gets paid a satisfied amount in a patron model (before production) you don’t “need” copyright. For work that is copyrighted many consider a Creative Common license that permits redistribution.
