Seriously, anything that someone has written down or recorded in audio, video or electronic media is copyrighted. In some cases, they release it to the public domain, meaning they are granting everyone the license to use the material.
If there is a copyright statement anywhere on the page, document or recording, it is an indication that they do wish to control the distribution.
Violation of the copyright means that you are depriving the rightful owner of the ability to control the distribution and revenues associated with the material.
