Copyrights Should Last Forever: A Legacy Worth Fighting For
In solidarity with our CEO, Mark G. Goldstein, renowned multi-platinum record producer Herb Middleton, founder and president of MoonTown Records & Publishing, is taking a stand and speaking out against this injustice. As a lifelong advocate for intellectual property rights and the creative arts, Herb is committed to battling for a framework that respects and safeguards the legacies of artists and their families. MoonTown is spearheading the effort to guarantee that the artists’ creative works will continue to benefit generations of families.
Herb plans to engage with hundreds of artists he has worked with over the years, providing guidance to help them retain, reclaim, and establish ownership of their intellectual property rights. He is committed to giving creators the tools and support they need to safeguard their legacies.
A System Rooted in Fairness
The current copyright laws fail to recognize that intellectual property is just as valuable as physical property. Creators and their descendants deserve the same protections for their works as families enjoy for their homes or investments. Allowing intellectual property to fall into the public domain benefits large corporations far more than the public, creating an economic imbalance that transfers wealth from the families of creators to big businesses.
This is not just an economic issue—it is one of fairness and moral rights. As Mark Twain and modern advocates like Mark Helprin have argued, it is unjust and unnecessary for copyright protection to expire.

This is such an important topic that doesn’t get nearly enough attention. Bravo for addressing an issue they’d rather keep quiet. It’s about fairness and ensuring the ability to pass down financial security to future generations. Well said!
This is valuable information that many people may not be aware of. It’s crucial to ensure this reaches every artist. Creators need to maintain control over their work, enabling them to license it for royalties or other financial benefits. Copyright serves as a strong deterrent against unauthorized use or misuse of creations.
