What's really unfair is the idiotic 95-year term under the US code for anonymous or pseudonymous works.
Which means everybody with a life expectancy below 15 years in the future (i.e. above the age of 75 or so), better forsake placing his name on his work! So far moral rights of attribution.... However, in real, economical sense, the present day value difference between 70 years copyright and 95 years copyright is a few dollars at most, even for a would-be classic. Jeroen Hellingman
