Copyright Law

What is important for you to know about copyright law? Why is copyright law important to the creator of the copyrighted material whether it be music, art, photographs, books, Internet posts, etc.?

  1. The most imported think to remember about copy right law is that if you copy something you have to get the author or URL. It is imported for the creator because he does want people to say that is work is there's.

  2. It's important to know the laws of copyright, (weather it be music, art, etc.) for two reasons. First, so that you understand the rules of how to borrow others peoples material,(to a certain extent) and to site their work. Like where you found it and who created it. The Second is so that you can keep your own material safe from copyright infringement.

  3. The most important thing to know about copy right law is that it's not only illegal, but its also stealing someone else’s work like photography, art, and internet post, etc. because someone made one of those things, and you can’t take/use them without giving that person credit.

  4. I feel that the copyright law is very important for multiple reason, the most importan being that it is just plain wrong to steal someone else's work. It also causes the author and the distributors to lose money. The copyright law protects all work, and you don't even need to get approved for it to protect your work.

  5. Dylan- First of all copyright laws are important to creators of the material becuase it keeps their invenntion/idea secure. Second it is important for me to know about copyright laws becuase they can apply to some things that you might think is harmless. downloading music illegally people think its not big deal. the truth is you cna be fined for it if not prsacuted.
