Isn't that the reverse? Mickey Mouse, when first released was not
subject to DRM, and copyright (due to the above law) has not lapsed.
Yes. Exactly. And the point being, the copyright moguls achieve
endless extensions due to their parliamentary $ influence, so there's
a good chance you will never get such an example as the one you ask
for - due to ever-increasing copyright extensions.
At least, in the good ole U.S of A.
