FYI: Copyrights

Hey all,

Here is a link to the Library of Congress Office of Copyrights. There is something that may not always be understood by us creative people. It is in our intereest to understand it as well as we can, since our stock in trade depends on these laws/rules. there is a lot of misunderstanding, myths, urban legends or real horror stories around copyrights. This is not exciting reading, but it is clear and authoritative.

The upshot is that the law is on the writer/musician/filmaker/creator's side. Happy reading.
