But his argument is that when following your logic that if someone inherits money that they can only use it for a limited time and then after N years they have to give it up.
In other words, that a copyright is property and should be treated no differently than tangible property like real estate, stocks, cash in the bank, etc. I don't agree with that argument, for all of the reasons given against it. But if you use the narrow Libertarian interpretation it does make sense from their perspective.
