True, it won't. But eternal copyright would mean that also works being written now that aren't mere entertainment fluff, and that might become classics, could never be used the way our classics have been and are being used.
As I said in an earlier post, if it was only the Mouse and the Marvel frigging cinematic effing universe, they can choke on eternal copyright for all that I care. But their eternal copyright would drag everything down with it.
