I remember an article about that Dinosaur strategy RTS game … I read that the developers wanted to buy the rights back. The publisher had gone bancrupt. The problem was that a bank (a German Sparkasse) was having the rights, because they had bought EVERYTHING from the bancrupt publisher.
Now, that has led me to the horrible thought : How many banks are virtually sitting on rights of any kind of media product no-one knows about ? And which are not only gathering dust but also become forgotten ?
