    Okay I now this the most popular question going but How long is it before a piece of text gets out of copyright so I can use it for free is it 50, 70 or 100 years? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. smile

    Once the author has died, and it has not been passed on as part of his estate - its free to all and sundrie.


    IF it has been passed on or they arnt dead, then you pay to play.

    I could be wrong, but thats half the fun isnt it.
