I'd be open to expanding IP protection for smaller businesses. But something like WoW - it's a billion dollar product that has more than paid for itself over the years. Blizzard doesn't need the protection of IP. It's just rent-seeking at this point.

I'm not sure what moral justification there is for them to keep milking it, while preventing other people from effectively remixing their work - forever. I think of all the awesome things that could be done with WoW as a base if only Blizzard's profiteering wasn't the only relevant factor.
