What if we post our songs in facebook immediately after we write it...and then later on release it..doing this even if in case someone has your song copied you will be able to show that you have it posted already...kinda raw version..

ALERT: Be very careful after you register your works. After registration your works are made 'PUBLIC' which includes your name, title of works, even your address and telephone number. Anyone in the world can see it. A shady person claiming to be from a shady company can call you and state that they are a 'middle man' between the creator and the US Copyright office. They will ask you for hundreds of dollars to 'finish' registering your works! Hang up and if you can report. Contact the Copyright office directly to ask questions. The criminals usually will try to call newly registered creators before the Copyright Office send the official certification. Just a heads up. Peace.

I was involved in a copyright infringement case in the US. Even though we had all the documentation and everything proving beyond any doubt that it was our work it took 1 1/2 years of fighting a corporation with a lawyer to get paid and we didn't even get paid the full amount. Yes, copyright your music but truth is once somebody steals it is going to be a long and expensive fight to get what was taken from you,

Extra Stuff Extra Stuff Yes. That’s like when somebody is accused of a crime they just don’t throw them in jail, everything has to go through a legal process. We eventually had to sue an ad agency, Macy’s and the individual that stole the music. At that point they paid attention. By the time we got our money it was almost a year and a half.

Roman Rojas: Curious, did you *timely* register your music with the US Copyright Office, either BEFORE the copyright infringement started OR within three-months of its first-publication date? Or did you miss that registration window and could only pursue *actual damages* and the infringer/s profits from the unlicensed music usage?

@@cnlicnli The song was actually a remake, a cover of an old Xmas song from Spain. But when you are dealing with an ad agency and you do a job for them there’s all kinds of documents that you have to sign and also emails between the composers and the production team that serves as a paper trail so you can back your claim. We also had dated protools session confirming the date of creation. With all that on our side it was still a fight that took almost one year and a half. In other words, it’s never that simple even when you registerer your song. And lawyers are expensive as well. I highly recommend becoming a member of Volunteer Layers For The Arts if you ever run into trouble.

I totally agree with you and I wrote a great song and someone wanted to remix my song and pretended to be my friend and I allowed them to do that and I didn’t fully understand what they were asking of me to do in return because no contract was sent out to me and they terms were unclear. But now i understand copyrighting all my originals should be my number one priority and so should it be for everyone else to !

I entered a songwriting competition when I was 13 that a record company advertised to win a recording and release in the studio and got told I didn’t get anywhere in it later that year they released my song exactly how it was written the same melody and lyrics it got to 27 in the Uk charts for a few days and then bombed out of the 50s position I’ve written over 1000 songs and petrified to release anything I don’t trust anyone and even if you do take people to court it costs you more in the long run unless the music is a massive hit and also people change the melody slightly and swap a couple of lyrics and loose the case and be in debt!

Or does a whole new recording of that song have to have a copy right? Thank you for your time !

It depends on the circumstances and maybe the region as well. This is a question for the copyright office and the music distribution service you intend to use. I would think the short answer is no, as long as the 2 songs are structurally the same. Don't quote me, though. I'm not an expert.

I have not posted my songs anywhere yet as I am in the process of finishing my EP. I already have the songs written and recorded. Can I copy write my songs prior to leasing the rest of the beats? I would make it clear the instrumentals are not mine ofcourse. Or do I need them leased before I can copywrite? Just trying to get done what I can in a timely manner.

"Hello", I live in Canada, and I just wrote a song that I intend to use on a video for my KZfaq channel. I enjoyed your video and found it helpful , but have a question. After I apply for and receive my copyright. How do I ensure that someone doesn't challenge it, based on the fact my song title is the same as theirs? I see the title I used ("My Home Away From Home") on my song ... has been used many times here on videos already. What about song titles, or that line being in the verses? And what about music, because I have to get someone else to create the music for my song. Basically( simple country acoustic)Thank You!

I make beats for fun and I think they are pretty sick and I was just wondering, if I wanted to turn my beats into a reality and send my beats to famous artists, before I send it to those artists should I get an official copyright document for my beats or after I send the beats to the famous artists and if they end up using my beat which is unlikely will they do the copyright for the song and the beat?

That's a great question John. For beats specifically I'm not so familiar with. Let's say you made beat for a famous artist I think they would probably prefer to pay you out outright for the beat for a fixed fee or they could consider giving you a split on the publishing or master rights of the song. Are you on beat stars or another platform selling your beats already?

You can't copyright a beat as a composition, you can only copyright the recording itself so nobody can steal your recording. Anyone can use a beat, it doesn't belong to anyone. The only exception would be if it was something extremely unusual.

When you upload your song to them do use the .mp3 the wav. or both?

Yes sir wrote, “Once I copyright [REGISTER] the track do I need to put any disclosure in the info section? Whether it's posted on soundcloud, youtube or what have you.” In filling-out your on-line (aka, eCO) copyright registration application, you’ll have to identify if your music is published or unpublished. If it’s published, you’ll have to list its date of first-publication; if it’s unpublished, you have to include the year it was created. You do not have to identify where your music was published. *If your music contains samples or third-party material that you didn’t create, you MUST disclose that information. If you knowingly lie or mispresent any material information in your copyright registration application, you’re subject to a criminal fine up to $2,500. So, answer all application questions truthfully.*

What if my album is complete but it doesn’t get released till next month. Should I still register the works as unpublished works or wait till the album gets released to the world then copyright it?

Thank you so much for making this video. If you don't mind me asking, do you have a separate artist channel that you use for your releases? Thank you.

What if you want to write music, but not perform it yourself? Could I just copyright the sheet music, or would I need to pay a professional to record my song so there is an audio reference in the copyright database?

I have an acquaintance for whom I wrote a song 9 years ago, I used to have the original manuscript but got lost, I have recently written a version of the said song with some of the elements from the original(like the name of the song and parts of the choir) but it plays differently and has more lyrics, up until now he has been giving me credit as the author of the song, however, he had a big gig not long ago where he claimed to be the author of the song, he has not registered the song for copyrights, but he did record it a few months ago, will I be able to register my new song for copyrights and prevent him to take ownership of the original song?

would I have to buy the exclusive rights to the instrumentation before copyrighting it?

I want to put some songs on my channel. They are very simple, have no lyrics, and I don't expect them to be popular. I don't want to risk them being taken. I just made them using a simple music app and it would be very easy for someone to make a song very similar using the same loops. Should I get a copyright for them, or just go for it?
