Copyright Compounds Work Product Issues

Copyright, unlike many areas of federal law, is expressly mentioned in the U.S. Constitution. In recognition of its growing importance, individual copyrights now last for 70 years after death of the author; more than a century ago, they lasted only for 14 years and could be extended another 14 by a petition.
