Copyright Law

sure you cant get arrested for that

Disney clip art can be used for a myriad of things. From enhancing party invitations, to making your own greetings cards. You should be careful to ensure that the Disney Copyright is not infringed.

Pablo Picasso died in April 8th 1973. Under current US law (life of the artist +70 years) his works would be protected until 2043.

The US copyright representative for the Picasso Administration is the Artists Rights Society (see link below)

If you have sheet music or liner notes, there should be an indication included. For a digital file, there should be information embedded in the metadata.

If you don't have any materials like this, the best place to look is in the databases associated with the performing rights societies: they keep track of who owns what so they know where to send the check. Links to ASCAP and BMI's databases are below.

common everyday words cannot be copyrighted

Numbers cannot be copyrighted that is why we had a 8084 a 80284 a 80384 a 80484 and then all of a sudden they called the next one a pentium so they could copy right the name.

Titles cannot be copy righted. I know of five novels, short stories and movies entitled 'Legacy'.

Yes; the novel will be protected for the life of Michael Crichton plus 70 years, and most other products will be protected for 95 years from publication (i.e., the original movie will enter the public domain in 2089.

You need to be a direct manufacturer to get any Disney License. You cannot be a middle man. You need to have at least 5 years of experience manufacturing the product you intend to license with Disney. Then you need a lot of money as you will have to pay a percentage of the royalties up front (this runs about 13% to 18% of your wholesale sales forecast for your first year).

Once you have the above covered, you then need to send in a proposal to Disney Consumer Products. Once they approve your item, you will work with them to approve your packaging and marketing plan.

Nearly every use would require permission. The only example I can think of that might not would be using the logo in face-to-face instruction about logos and branding.

Both are forms of unlicensed copying, but it's possible to have one without the other.

An example of copyright infringement without plagiarism would be uploading a track from an album you bought: you're not saying it's yours, but you're still copying it without permission.

Plagiarism without copyright infringement would happen when you take materials in the public domain and try to pass them off as your own. Romeo and Juliet? I totally wrote that.

To ask permission to use copyrighted material, write a letter to the owner of the material stating why or how the copyrighted material will be used. There might be a fee that has to be paid in some cases. A person might also have to sign a specific contract, too.

Holes is on netflix but by dvd only and not available for instant streaming

If you downloaded the movie as a torrent then it is more than likely that your IP address has been recorded by the copyright enforcement authorities. However, at this point in time, it is unlikely that you will be prosecuted unless you download or share hundreds or of movies illegally. What the authorities plan to do in the future with the IP address of individual downloaders is unknown.

Anything from a movie prior to 1923 or prior to 1964 and not properly renewed is in the public domain and can be used freely, without copyright restriction. Most other movies are still under copyright protection & you will have to seek permission from the rights holder.

It means that the photograph has been protected by copyright laws and any use of the photo must be done with the permission of the copyright holder.

There are 2 aspects to the copyright. An unregistered copyright protects the owner of the image and legally allows them up to $300 in claims against anyone copying the image illegally. A registered copyright must be filed through the government and allows greater claims against the infringer

It depends...If you have the movie, and you want another copy just in case then that is PROBABLY legal. But if you don't have the movie and you make a bunch of copies and keep one and sell the other to people for money, then it is TOTALLY illegal.

Depends where you download it from.

If the site owners have permission to make said shows downloadable, Its A-Okay.

However, if they do not have permission to do so, It is called pirating, and is illegal.

Yes the LotR books are copyrighted. However due to a minor legal oversight the original US copyright on LotR was not valid and the books were published for a period of time by Ace taking advantage of this. As the US copyright was not valid Tolkien could take no legal action in court, but Ace was eventually forced by fan pressure to cease publication, the US copyright on the first edition text of LotR is still not valid. I believe this was corrected by properly copyrighting the text of a later edition of LotR in the US.

It first came into stores August 2nd, 2008

No. Before his death, Michael Jackson was acquiring the rights and legal trademarks of various songs (including some Beatles material right underneath Paul McCartney's nose and knowledge) but Michael Jackson never had the opportunity to get the legal rights to own the song "Happy Birthday."

That depends n their construction. The simplest of battery is carbon-zink. More modern batteries may use lithium-cell technology. The idea behind all batteries is to produce electrons, that will move from the minus pole to the positive (!). Rechargeables usually have a somewhat lower voltage, but has an inner chemical composition that allows them to reverse the current back into the battery. Just like lead-acid batteries /H2SO4/. How they work in detail? Check out the Internet with Google, there are some good sites that will 'fill in the gaps'. <><><>

Copyright is addressed in the Constitution (1787) and codified in the Copyright Act of 1790. Prior to that, there were a few private copyright acts with comparatively short terms.

In most countries (over 160), copyright is free. In a few countries where you can register copyright, a small fee is charged.

In the USA, where copyright registration is optional until you want to sue in federal court, copyright registration costs $35 for each application. One application can be used to protect hundreds of works simultaneously in a collection.
