Books, games, music, are just mere information. Once it is created, everybody can have access to it and the "right" to own it is just a moral (but useful) case.
It is all about truth and its importance in valueing information. As you say "we pay with our wallets" but in reality when we pay we are not giving value for something already in existance but for something that could be created.
Take the example with music, you pay the artist to listen to music that have already been created, but in reality you are giving to him money to value his future works.
With books is the same, you pay money to value past works, hoping you can support him to create other works.
Games' case could be the same but in reality, games nowadays are always works in progress full of patches and DLCs. I think that the ultimate games are the ones that as per bitcoin-core example, will evolve via open-source merging of owned-by-everybody code.
