@Andrew_C – It may be law, but it doesn’t make it a moral, ethical, or just law.
Copyright is about encouraging the creation of content, not having a monopoly to print free money.
The issue is Copyright is so long that these large entertainment corps are turning into your classic lazy welfare person who is not longer encouraged to do anything useful, but just sit there and collect money, encouraged to only do work when they absolutely have to.
Even worse is they’re changing the laws to make it so you can’t derivative works based on their stuff.
When you have art like Jazz, nearly everything is a derivative work.
