That's generous, I'd always thought 1% of revenue every year (and going up another percent year by year). That's with a maximum of thirty years before it goes into the public domain.
Keeping something public yet out of the public domain should cost.
Personally I just go with anything over seven years is public domain, unless I have a strong urge to support the artist(s).
- icebraining 9y agoA percent of revenue doesn't help with abandoned works, though.
- ChoGGi 9y agoIf they don't pay then it goes to public domain.
- icebraining 9y agoNo, I mean, 1% of $0 is $0, there's nothing to pay.
- ChoGGi 9y agoIn that case it goes into the public domain after a year.
