    1000%.

    Way back when fbxl was powerusrs gaming in the late 1990s, one of the few articles I wrote on there was saying basically the same thing even back then. It isn’t good for society to be chasing down $300 boxed copies of games just to see a slice of history.

    It should be like trademark: use it or lose it.

    I’m ok with old games being sold, btw. There was a time I owned every game on gog on principle. (Today there’s too much to possibly lol)

    One could argue that current copyright terms are practically "perpetual" beyond most human lifespan.
