Current official policy appears to be heading towards 5 years + 5 more
if you register. There's some debate from when this period should start.
Yes, I am aware of this, but why five years, why not one year why not
three months, and if three months, why at all.
How long does it take for most products to make the vast majority of
their money. There are exceptions, like the Beatles etc.
But the vast majority make most of their income in the first three
months on sale.
How long would it take for a competitor, to prepare and publish an
alternative to a say a book. More than three months ?
