On: Why Games Should Enter The Public Domain

Does it matter? There is a free clone of the first Zelda and I don't see how you could argue that it is in any way limiting the monitization of the franchise. If anything, it seems like it would be an excellent marketing move for franchises to release older games for free (even before 20 years).

"Does it matter?"

Maybe. I trying to argue that this meant copyright should be longer, I was trying to make sure our discussion was fully informed.
