Johnny H on 20 Oct 11"What is a copyright? A copyright is the set of exclusive legal rights authors have over their works for a limited period of time. These rights include copying the works (including parts of the works), making derivative works, distributing the works, and performing the works (this means showing a movie or playing an audio recording, as well as performing a dramatic work). Currently, the author's rights begin when a work is created. A work does not have to bear a copyright notice or be registered to be copyrighted. " the web site tells me all about what copyright laws and others are. I think that it is very useful to people, because it can help them learn more about copyrighting.
