I have never seen anyone make a compelling argument as to why *software* should be granted a 95-year term of protection. Literally all it does is block preservation efforts for programs that are decades obsolete.

I guess stuff like Virtual Console, GOG, and porting is somewhat compelling, though a 'use it or lose it' clause would be nice. Back in 2013 EMI was forced to release a ton of early Beatles recordings because of a law like that, or it would have became public domain.
