Copyright Summary

Copyright is when you use someone elses, work, music, movie, ect without paying for it, or without thier permission. Alot of people are confused by the copyright law because the past sites like Napster has had financial problems and caused other people financial problems. Now Napster supposedly has everything under control but who are you to trust? The most common thing copyrighted is music. Music is so easily copyrighted because people download it for free and give it to other people and the people that wrote and preformed the music arent getting any money. Another thing that is copyrighted is written work. Written work is copyrighted by students. If students dont get their papers done they copy someone elses paper without givng that person credit that is copyright and illegal. So pretty much dont use someone elses work or sell their work for money or school because you will get caught and in trouble with the law.
