@AccordionBruce @shapr The canadian government did y'all dirty by not only extending the term of copyright, but re-copyrighting things that had already entered the public domain (James Bond, for example.)

Yeah it was this law in 2012
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_Modernization_Act

Our @accordionnoir radio show does a Public Domain Day show every year (coming this Wednesday)

Was confusing and frustrating when what was available changed here all the sudden

Now we wound back and are playing recordings of songs coming out of the new (to us) older copyright dates, as well as sound recordings that have passed the longer times
