Perhaps authors would be more inclined to distribute content DRM-free, and consumers to pay.
Some use this model already, for example Nine Inch Nails and Griz (may be wrong)

Diane Duane sells her books directly, as DRM-free epubs [0]. Was quite happy when, a decade after first reading it, I found out So You Want To Be A Wizard wasn't standalone and wanted to continue the series.

Pretty much all paid music downloads are DRM-free now. There is usually a distributor like Bandcamp that takes a cut, but that's because most artists aren't going to host their own payment system and file servers.
