Infringement is prolific, difficult to catch, and expensive to stop. Even before the internet, it would be impossible to know how many people were, say, tape-recording a song off the radio. If by some miracle you were able to find them all, it wouldn't be worth your while to take action against them. The internet makes it exponentially easier to infringe, and exponentially more difficult to stop.
Enforcing copyright rights can be challenging due to several reasons. Firstly, the global nature of the internet makes it difficult to monitor and regulate infringements that occur across borders. Additionally, the sheer volume of digital content makes it hard to identify and address every instance of infringement. Moreover, some jurisdictions may have different laws and enforcement mechanisms, further complicating the process of enforcing copyright rights.
Externalities and market failure will result from the difficulty of enforcing property rights.

A copyright regime refers to the set of laws and regulations that govern the protection and ownership of creative works such as books, music, art, and software. It outlines the rights and limitations of creators, the duration of copyright protection, and the procedures for enforcing those rights. Copyright regimes vary from country to country but generally aim to balance the interests of creators and users of copyrighted works.

The NCC attempts to promote respect of others' IP rights, while reducing or eliminating piracy. Their focus is enforcing copyright law to benefit Nigerian artists, rather than consumer rights. However, as piracy becomes less common, the consumer can have a better chance of knowing that their support of artists, in the form of CD sales, really supports the artists, not counterfeiters.
Governments have difficulty enforcing unpopuler laws.
Copyright law is designed to ascribe exclusive rights to the creator of a work.
it protect the rights of authors creativity
Copyright refers to the set of exclusive rights of an author or artist regarding reproducing, distributing, displaying, performing or modifying their works, among other rights, as well as a set of additional legal restrictions on others under the copyright laws. In most countries, copyright is instantly and automatically owned by anyone who puts any creative work of authorship into a tangible form, whether it is pencil on paper, lines in the sand, sounds on an audio tape recorder, or bits stored in computer memory. There are a few statutory limitations on enforcing these rights, such as the "fair use" of limited portions of a copyrighted work for permitted purposes. Others have said: copyright is basically material held by television movie etc companies and you have the right to use that material and put in video's
Not much. The Copyright Act defines the exclusive rights of the creator of an artistic work, as well as exceptions to those rights.
"Copyright" or the copyright symbol in a notification is a reference to a set of laws (in the US, Title 17) protecting the rights of the creator of a work.
