There are some points in the paper that I had not considered, such as the issue of sheet music. I play guitar and had noticed that it's almost impossible to get sheet music for popular songs. Most people simply play by ear by listening to the recordings.
I like his proposal for a new copyright system, though I would say that the vast majority of copyright issues would go away if you went back to the original term of copyright for free, and then left the life plus 70 in place for copyright holders who wanted to renew on a regular basis for a fee. Something like that might have a better chance of being passed.
