Deserve better than life + 20? I don't agree. I think there's a clear-cut interest in making work public domain. Excessive copyright has real tangible negative effects. And I just don't think that the interest of an author after life + 20 is sufficiently robust to outweigh that.

Moreover: if you want to improve the entertainment industry, you have ways to do that besides just copyright policy. Copyright policy can't and shouldn't be used to remedy every shitty thing about the entertainment industry. For example vigorous antitrust and labor action would probably be much more effective in preserving the interests of creators than overwhelmingly long copyright terms.

Sorry for not being clear. I meant "better in general". The way most authors are paid (i.e. authors who aren't Stephen King or JK Rowling) is pretty pitiful and I don't think most people realize that. They see books on shelves and think the author's "made it".

This. It's only a tiny, tiny fraction of creators who go on to make huge amounts of money off their work.
