Distributing data to everybody is the only communism that works.

Endless replication, creates endless intelectual and creative wealth and diminishes financial wealth to zero.

It won't even diminish it to zero. Some people will still pay. Ya I could download games for free and play them but I want to support the teams that made them so they keep making them. I only get games for free if that is the only way of getting them.
