Heald on copyright

Paul Heald discusses his work on copyright and the public domain with Mercatus's Jerry Brito. I really enjoyed his talk at Canterbury last year on the same topic; his headline chart made the rounds a bit afterwards.

Heald showed that as works fall outside of copyright, their use greatly increases; copyright on older works then seems to stifle those works' use rather than encourage creative uses.
