Bob Dylan's copyright extension collection

The
what?
Yes, the Copyright Extension Collection:
It's the name of a Bob Dylan collection album released by Sony. Or actually, the full title is "The 50th Anniversary Collection - The Copyright Extension Collection".
Recently Europe has extended the copyright on music from 50 to 70 years, which is a pretty shitty thing to happen actually. Sony has now released this collection album of old Bob Dylan songs just so they can make use of the 20 year extension because the extension only counts for music that has been published within the original 50 year period.
Sony is being deliciously cynical with this album title, but I can't shake the nagging feeling that they've got a big part in pushing the new copyright law forward in the first place.

Copyright is BS and China knows it. That's why there's no such thing in China.

Technically, and this is a technical discussion, there is no band called "the Beatles", there WAS, freaking decades ago.

That's a whole world full of hurt.
Copyright laws should fall inline with patent laws no ?, both are designed to benefit the business anyway so meh

Wow, you're coming in hard to argue semantics here. To the average person, it's clear what seremtan meant. Don't get your panties in a knot.
