Britain Rejects Copyright Extension
The British Government has rejected an extension of copyright beyond the current 50 year term. This is interesting for a few reasons, including the impending rush of British Invasion music becoming royalty-free, but mostly because it may signal a sea change in the world’s approach to copyright terms.
It is far from over, however, as music publisher’s and musicians are working to pass EU legislation to extend protection beyond the current limits.
