I think this is where a change in copyright law would be helpful. There are likely very few games that are more than ~20 years old that earn significant revenue based on the sales of the game. Those same games 10 years later will probably earn even less. If their copyright expired at that time (or earlier) then it wouldn't matter much whether these cloud providers will go down or not.

With the rise in popularity of doing HD remakes, mini-consoles, and just plain re-releases on new platforms, I can't imagine that would go over well with publishers/developers.

> I think this is where a change in copyright law would be helpful. The changes have always gone in the other direction. What I always thought was odd - why has copyright duration gotten longer and longer, but patent duration stayed the same?
