I think 30 years is a decent base in my mind. Let it be renewed a couple times for an extra years if the owners think it’s worth it. That way most stuff flows into the public domain but some works can keep creating value for their creator.

Upvote for 30 years. Try it for a while, if creative industries aren't meaningfully damaged by the reduced IP rights, then maybe even take it down lower to like 25 or even 20 years.
