For copyrights, why is this a problem? Consider the early copyright lengths of like 20 years + 20 years after the author's death. We're now at far, far, faaar beyond that. What if we did 20 + 20 and then every year after it, we charge $X and then geometrically or exponentially increase the price. Yes, it would be a tax to Disney; but, if Disney is willing to spend $2B in 2010 to keep Steam Boat Willie and then $2.5B in 2011, I think that's a fine tax for them to get to keep it. I don't think most people had _any_ problem with the 20 + 20 or similar patterns. They have issues with the, what is it now, 120 years?
