And piracy isn’t an answer to this question. Because then you are saying you have the right to all of them. Do you have a similar right to every video game? Every movie? Every song? Every written word?

All media should enter the public domain after 10 years, so yeah, I do.

    15 years, with a single optional extension that must be applied for in the 14th year. If you can't manage to sell it in 30 years of marketing, you aren't gonna sell it.

    This is a bullshit number that you've pulled from thin air. Corporations would obviously go for the full 30 years, and by the time it's getting close to 30 years, they'll have figured out another loophole to withhold their content from the general population.

    Corporations only exist to pull a profit. They do not care about consumers, only their profit margins, shareholders and quarterly turnaround. Dumb comment all round.
