There are five basic rights that copyright confers...

The right to reproduce the work

The right to create derivatives

The right to distribute copes to the public

The right to perform the work publicly

The right to display the work publicly

note that these rights are not absolute, there are exceptions (most notably the "fair use" doctrine)
