Explanatory Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
The passage argues that, despite the advances in digital distribution and storage of films (via streaming
services or digital purchases), access to art is becoming more fragile. It mentions how content can disappear
from platforms, how digital files deteriorate over time, and how rights agreements can limit access based on
geographical location. The idea that technology and platform control lead to difficulties in maintaining access
captured in Option B
Option A: The passage does not advocate changing the understanding of art as immutable or easily available.
Hence, this is wrong.
Option C: This is an overstatement of the passage’s argument. While the passage briefly touches on the idea of
retroactive changes to works like Stranger Things, it does not present these changes as inherently "dangerous."
Option D: The passage does not argue for the availability of art in the cultural commons in perpetuity. Instead, it
highlights how access is controlled by platforms and technological challenges rather than making a broader
ideological statement about cultural commons.
