Honestly, I'd like to see something more along the lines of the copyright lasts the lifetime of the author unless it gets sold.

Once it gets sold it immediately starts a shot clock of exactly 20 years.

Though honestly anything would be better than what we have now.

Wouldn't that give an advantage to any copyright assigned to a company, or subsidiary thereof?

Or lead to lengthy licencing deals rather than outright sales?

		The idea is solid, I suspect it just needs some tweaks to the language. "It's not a sale, it's a license", ironically reminds me of sovereign-citizen "I'm not driving, I'm travelling and don't need a license, Officer" BS.
