But then, are they TAKING things from the Public Domain, or are they taking steps to PREVENT things from moving to the public domain? Has there been any examples of things that moved into public domain, but then retroactively became private again after legislation changes?
Cos if they're just preventing things from going into public domain, then thats not the same as taking things from the public domain.

Yeah, but can it stay up all night looking up wikipedia for names of obscure early-90s dance acts and then scour all the torrent sites for full albums instead of just "Best of 90's Dance You Like Me Now?" compilations, and then stare at bittorrent, begging more seeders to come online to increase the speed from 0.01KB/s, and then say "screw it" and download the latest metallica and eminem albums on principle, delete them without listening to them, because it doesnt really like metallica or eminem, and then wander off to youtube to watch old WCW videos?

after saving 2 minutes a day, five days a week for a year, you'd have saved 520 minutes, or nearly nine hours.
But you could only use those hours in one block if you were now leaving and arriving home from work nine hours earlier than you had been before.
You're more likely to just waste that extra minute in minutae at the beginning / end of the day.
