If you research here, the owner was involved in a copyright case in his home country. The ruling was that MobileRead had to follow the copyright law of the home country, which was life + 70, instead of having servers in various countries with various copyright laws.
There are countries with Life + 50 (original Berne length), Life + 70, Life + 100, and the US, which is incoherent.
