I like the idea of no cap, and a fairly aggressive schedule that would make keeping a copyright longer than a human lifetime almost universally unprofitable.
- iso1631 5y agoEven without an escalating charge it's interesting - as if you put the value too high you're paying more than you want, put it low and a competitor will buy you out. Take the entire Star Wars canon for example, say they put the value at $10b, netflix could buy it relatively easily, but a 1% tax would mean Disney have to pay $1b a decade just to keep it registered. Bump that to $50b though and it will cost $5b a decade to register. Drop it to $100m and some individuals might buy it just for shits and giggles.
