Look for attempts to have copyright extended to virtual eternity in the near future in the USA thanks to that whole "Citizens United" deal about corporations being considered persons under the 1st Amendment (and, likely, the entire US Bill of Rights), declaring that any copyrights owned by the corporation lasts for 75 years after the death of that corporate person (ie, until 75 years after that corporation disolves, which is rather a rare thing since most of the time they just get absorbed into another corporation...).
