True about the enforcement, that would be difficult. If one of the federated nodes suddenly had copyright material, how would we know and deal with it? How does Funkwhale deal with it?

At that point just set up a server for streaming/downloading those files… except that already exists with their existing free distribution methods.

No, the whole point is distributed servers (and users), and there are not easy distribution using a single server method.

I can't believe we cant get past this, it is ridiculous.

Edit: the library idea was like Freegal where different libraries can contribute.
