MODERATORS
Hell, let's compromise and say 20 years after the author's death. In case they have a small child at the time of death and said child's other parent isn't capable of the kid's upkeep, a little extra would help.
But what is it right now? 70 years? Literally no excuse for that.
At some point it just becomes a tool for making money off of other people's works
And look where it has left us: bereft of creativity.
