[Year 12 SofDev] navigating IS

[Stephen Digby]

The copyright situation of books not in print (and software no longer
purchasable) is an interesting issue.....
I have investigated with software and was told that after ceasing to sell
software, a company has the right to insist that no one (other than the past
original purchasers) uses it for eternity....
Wonder what the specifics are for books out of print ?  70 years 100 years ?
Tried to look up but cannot find ..... anyone know ?
