    I think it’s honestly because of the older stuff starting to finally reach public domain age, and they want new versions that will retain copyright for authors life+100 years all over again. They’ll lose access to the copyrights to the originals, but they’ll still be able to copyright any new variations they make while they are still in ownership of the originals.

    Which, yeah, is peak boring dystopia.
