What Could Have Been Entering the Public Domain on January 1, 2011?

If the pre-1978 law were still in effect, we could have seen 85% of the works created in 1982 enter the public domain on January 1, 2011. Imagine what that would mean to our archives, our libraries, our schools and our culture. Instead, these works will remain under copyright for decades to come, perhaps even into the next century. And for most of them – orphan works – that means they will be both commercially unavailable and culturally off limits, without any benefit going to a copyright holder. Think of the cultural harm that does. http://www.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday/pre1976

Hello Downloader

even failure is better than the crappy label/distributor/retailer system musicians have suffered from for over 50 years.
