Re: Here's an idea

The copywright use to expire on the composers death. but media industry got that changed to 25 years. and then recently they lobbied congress and got it changed to 75 years. Disney was the biggest pusher for the 75 year mark as most of walt disney's copyrights were about to expire. They even slipped in a clause in the new stature to make it retro active to exisiting holders

18 months was an example. The actual figure could be anything that could REASONABLY be agreed to. 2 years. 4 years. Whatever.
Regarding copyright, I have understood that copyright expired after the author's death, but I will investigate.
