AS2 Task 1 copyright

Copyright was first orginated in the Uk in 1710. This came into force on 1 august 1989. Various amendments have been made to the original statute, mostly originating from the European Union directives.
It has been put into place so that people cannot copy the same things that other people have made and make money of. It applies for a range of all different things for example: electronic products, adverts, logos and music.
The rules that would apply for copyright with music.
The owner of a copyrighted music work owns the rights to the sheet music, but the owner of an authorized copy may play the copy, unless it is for public performance, but may not copy it in any medium or use it for derivative works without permission. There are guidelines for use of copying and performance of music in educational settings and the University does have blanket permission through licenses from performing rights societies for their repertoires.
The rules for copying of sheet music are very much like those for the copying and use of written or graphic works. Single copies, or edited copies for use, but not distribution of recorded works owned personally or by the University, can be made but must be retained, not distributed. Performance of music in the BMI or ASCAP repertoire, sponsored by the University, in a University facility is (probably) permissible, but the license must be checked at Procurement and Property Management Office (PPMO) to be sure that specific conditions are met. Dramatic performances of music are not permitted without a special license, obtainable through PPMO.
Library/Media Center personnel should be especially concerned with the possible duplication of entire copyrighted tapes, since that circumstance doesn't meet the brevity test for fair use, and should warn a user who expresses the intent to copy a whole tape that such an act would be a violation. A copy of a portion of a tape or vinyl recording for educational use would probably be permissible, depending on the size of the portion, but the duplication of an entire recording would not be, and buying the work is the proper alternative. The Library/Media Center can make one circulating copy as long as the original is not circulated. Again,the UH Copyright Guidelines have several examples of what is or isn't fair use for music and the rationale involved.

Copyrighting a song/video can be really good useful as it can help you from getting your music stolen. For example if you have a song then and someone users bits of your song without asking your permission then you would be able to sue and even make some money of them.
