Channel: New Media Rights
Date: 06/08/2012

New Media Rights explains all of the categories of artistic works that the Copyright laws and Copyright Office use. We makes distinctions between tricky things like sound recordings & musical works and literary works & dramatic works. Very useful if you intend to register your work with the Copyright Office yourself.
