This article posted by the Fool used some technical
terms, but since I actually have some professional
experience in this field, I thought that I'd point out
that the concept of "public domain" has never existed
in Mexico the way it has existed in the US.
Moreover, despite the hysterical title put by Kneem on
this article, but one major legal change being
proposed in Mexico is fairly technical: extending
copyrights from life + 75 years to life + 100 years.
Another legal change discussed would bring Mexican law
into closer harmony with Canadian law, and thus
provide for artists to be compensated when their laws
are played on the radio.
