I dont think that society would of benefited if we didnt get to experience the comment by way of artwork by Andy Warhol on the Campbell soup cans.
One could argue its an iconic piece of our popular culture that wasnt sponsored by Campbells soup yet Campbells have benefited from the marketing and exposure for decades of the use and likeness still to this day popular art is impacted by this commercial piece of work.

“used humor and irony to comment on how mass production and consumerism had come to dominate so much of American life and culture.”
If you are looking for a movie to watch I would suggest “The Andy Warhol Diaries” on Netflix
It also covers the work of Jean michel Basquiat along with his rise with a collaboration with Warhol. The use of many company logos over the years Paramount etc all of which benefited by being featured I tend to think this is part of the idea of the creation of Creative Commons.
When I see people criticize the modern day version of digital artist think Beeple and others that use logos as parts of their works I wonder if they are aware of the not so distant history of our Arts.
