man, you can really tell that you havent thought about the subject longer than the time it took you to remove a dingleberry from your asshole and eat it!
"intellectual property" is just that, a bundle of rights in something (tangible or not, think stocks for example) the alotment of which your treat with mechanisms generally described as "property law" - too much legalese?
well try this one: you reckon that "property" lives forever - thats crap, your rights are just carved out of a bigger bundle of rights and on your demise, your rights will either go back or (within limits) pass on to those you designated. if your rights in property lasted forever, the world would soon be left with nothing to be owned.
so, in conclusion, IAAL and Id warmly recommend you read Locke or Honore
