For example Night of the Living Dead and Starcraft are both content that you once needed to pay for but are now free.

Edit: The amount might be a little low. How much money would it take for you to say yes?

      If you weren’t explicitly excluding content that was always free, I’d consider it for $10, but by excluding that, you make it a miniscule amount of content that would be consumable.

        That’s kind of what I was getting at. YouTube, itch.io, Spotify’s free tier, the radio, and so on would probably make just consuming free content pretty trivial these days.

          I’d argue that Spotify’s free tier would be content that you once had to pay for but is now free, as long as you were only listening to songs that were originally only available on albums that you’d have to buy (as opposed to, for example, podcasts.)

            Wouldn’t that include most streaming services though? A lot of shows and movies made for streaming services likely wouldn’t count but that still gives you a lot of content pre-2015’ish
