Hardly striking down most of copyright law, but it is an interesting and potentially significant expansion of the copyright misuse defense (if it holds up).

This is not an exaggeration. Copyright law was somewhat reasonable before Disney came around.

He is but that’s not enough for full protection of a creative work as opposed to a product.

they can do that, but they don't want third parties to be able to sell steamboat willie DVDs and so on. if stuff goes into the public domain, it will be hosted on archive.org, youtube, etc.

lol, did you just confuse physical property with the artificial construct of "IP"? the constitution itself says that copyrights are to be of a LIMITED duration. 95 years is well beyond the average american lifespan - hardly "limited" in the original sense of 14 years + 14 years renewable by the copyright holder.

MLB/NFL better starting rethinking their warnings that "express written consent" is required to describe their games.
