Business and copyright can cross paths many different ways. Any business would want to protect its written materials, advertising, and so on. But some businesses exist specifically to license protected content, such as music publishers.

It depends on the type of company. A record label, for example, would spend a lot of time licensing copyrights from publishers, as well as defending its own copyrights. Some companies are creating protected content, and others are using it.

What companies protect the copyright of composers and song?

A copyright holder (regardless of whether it is for music, books, software, etc.) must protect their own rights though vigilance and if necessary filing lawsuits against violators. It is possible to hire legal firms that will perform these for you and publishing companies typically have an internal legal department for this purpose.
