It is illegal and immoral. It steals the rightful intellectual property of directors and developers who are only trying to make a living. If you want to be a thief so badly, then rob a federal bank.

        Im asking what specific item do you remember entering public domain? The creator of the Lord of the Rings died in the 70’s and his work is still under copyright.

        70 years after the creator death. Stuffs should become public domain once the itrms no longer make significant revenue or no revenue at all

        So are you morally opposed to all the crap disney has done to ruin the public domain for entire generations?

        That seems worse than pirating a disney movie to me.
