I agree with you. In fact, I am quite sure media companies (not necessarily many individual authors) would like to see copyright law revised to establish perpetual copyrights and make all content viewable on some sort of subscription model.
Personally, I find the whole situation a bit silly. Copyright laws long ago extended the requirements that justified their creation (i.e., to encourage the production and publication of creative works). I can't imagine knowing that your grandchildren will continue to obtain royalties for your work is very high on the list of most author's reasons for writing and publishing.
