I don't understand this. Am I to cease getting paid for my work once a
certain time has passed?
Yes, and you're still getting a very generous deal.
Most people cease getting paid as soon as their work is finished. Artists can
continue to get paid for a lifetime after working just once. So it's best not
to look a gift horse in the mouth.
Seems like a case of demand determining price.
The demand for CDs has dropped dramatically.
OK, you're entitled. I just want my work to be given away without my
permission.
For a limited time. Not forever.
