As a result, the basic term under the Copyright Act of 1976, which was life plus 50 years is now life plus 70 years. For more inforamtion about the ramifications of the new act, see the below.

Since we often have discussions about copyright, I thought everyone would be interested in this from the Music Publisher's Association. Copyright Resource Center http://www.mpa.org/copyright/copyresc.html It is a wonderful resource with guides, forms, and information on copyright and fair use, and links to several other resources to assist you in your search.
