I'm also a fan of the concept of copyright. Personally, I'd rather see a fixed term based on publishing date rather than life+whatever, simply because it makes it easier to determine when the copyright expires.

As for how long the term should be, I'd really like it to be based on evidence, rather than simply picking a number out of the air. I doubt that'll happen any time soon, though.
