A work colleague forwarded me this excellent video, which I highly recommend watching (it's about 10 min long). It was made by Professor Eric Faden of Bucknell University to explain copyright law, but to do so he's cleverly spliced together clips from Disney films. In case you don't know, the main reason for the repeated lengthening of the copyright term (currently life + 70 years for creators) is lobbying by Disney, who can't stomach the idea of Mickey Mouse et al entering the public domain! Believe it or not the video is entertaining while getting an important message across, so do take a look.
