It doesn't really change your current negotiating position because the net future value after 35 years is zero under all normal business assumptions.

- anigbrowl 13y agoYou're thinking in terms of a one-off, such as an album or book release. But things like alternative mixes, remasters, unreleased tracks etc. can have significant value for famous artists. Think 'lost Beatles track,' for example. Likewise, Fritz Lang's film classic 'Metropolis' is under copyright until 2023; there have been several reissues of the film with missing footage restored (after being found in museums and the like). Film contracts in particular often have structural dependencies on box-office performance.
