So, what's the problem? Except that there'll be less money for the publishers (and indirectly to the heirs...)
It's not necessarily about the publishers, in many cases they are granted the rights only for a certain number of years or editions.
It's too easy to always blame the publishers - one shouldn't forget that they are the ones that invest money and take risks.
