O I how sympathise
The times I have tried to take a "Grand Piano" on board as hand luggage and been refused
My offer of a sterling in flight "sing-a-long" to bolster the morale of the passengers, has always somehow received a somewhat cold reception

They will have obviously infringed another party's rights by using either the sound or the smell without consent of the rights-holder.
If we all have to pay and play by the rules, a common sense thing would be to charge a fee for a DMCA complaint.
Run it this way
A DMCA complaint carries a $500 fee, which results in a 30 day investigation of the alleged infringement (leaving the content up until proven one way or the other), this being refundable if it is proved to be a genuine complaint.
On the other hand, if it proved to be bogus, the $500 would be forfeit and an extra charge of $1000 would be imposed to cover the cost of the investigation
After it all, air travel is no longer the glamourous thing it was in the 1960's
If someone want's to listen to me and my Mrs bitching in an airport about why we are here in this overstated bus station and both getting very pissed off about everything from the plastic courtesy to the overpriced "duty free" shite. If they want to record that I hope they have a very large hard drives or very sophisticated compression techniques because, given Mrs Arioch's capability with the spoken word, they are already on a loser. I hold my hand on my heart to the one that is prepared to sift through a recording of so much of {Mrs Arioch} in an airport

Parasites
Content creators will better be able to distribute their content without going through these parasite middlemen that contribute absolutely nothing.
You sum it up entirely
The media "industry" is losing it's cocaine fuelled control of what it always regarded as a long term, unassailable future.
The respectability they try to project in their death throes is also laughable.
Are we to believe that the "casting couch" is an urban myth?
