It seems that the copyright hole is not getting bigger in the UK, for now anyway:
Slashdot | UK Rejects Extending Music Copyright
Resisting demands to continue the extension of copyright terms is a good start. The next step should be to review why we have copyrights in the first place because while I think copyrights are useful it seems to me that the legislators have lost sight of why we need them and what benefits they offer to society and it follows that the law makers have not been able to introduce useful legislation in this space.
So, good that the UK has stopped digging. Now to start filling in the hole.
