I hate having to write out "intellectual property". Yes I'm lazy.

So they are allowed to take all they want, without giving anything back?
This would be different, if after 30 or even 40 years their own works became
public domain, but they seem to have a way of buying extensions just before
that runs out. Once it reaches the century mark, I start to have trouble
believing that there really is an expiration. Again, I readily admit this is
the law, but I question the wisdom of it.
