I mostly agree, but five years often won't score your ROI. I especially think entertainment IPs should fall into the public domain faster. 70-years after the author's death is a fucking joke.

If, god forbid, Steven King croaks tomorrow, his work should go public after a few years (to resolve estate issues).
