How do you know they did nothing at all. The purpose of copyright, at least in the USA, is to encourage creators to create. I wouldn't be surprised if she people try to create that one last great American novel, so their children are taken care of. If the copyright can't be passed on, those creators might not create that last work of art. Personally I think copyright should be 25 years. And not the life and then some. But that 25 years should extend past the life of the creator. Plus I don't want to create any motives to do away with the creators
