So far I have been highly underwhelmed by what has been done with newly public domain properties
Some can argue it’s quite an argument in favor of lowering the length of protected period. We can observe first hand that things going public doesn’t cause any problem for previous owners at all and my opinion is that we are cutting it too far. If we want proper balance between ownership and creativity we need to put the threshold somewhere where it is at least a mild inconvenience for the owners, maybe more.
