The option for a single renewal for 14 more years doesn't strike me as onerous. It makes a concession for the "audience hasn't made you rich in the first 14 years" and is still light years ahead of the current de facto infinite duration.

It won't ever change, though. No chance ever. Other than to be actually made infinite. The nature of "intellectual property" and money being speech in US politics locks that in.




Well, at some point our government will collapse entirely, and then all the laws can change. I'm starting to think that might not be far off.


I'm afraid that is just wishful and overly-optimistic thinking.
