Actually, I want to go even further and say that I think his work actually is worth quite a bit. Not that he is worth that much, or others aren't (again, I don't know him), but he has given millions of people hours upon hours of enjoyment, and that's nothing to shake a stick at.

Yeah well that's the effect of the modern world, where works can be replicated effortlessly. Sucks if your work is producing physical goods that can't be copy/pasted.
