human mind… of our intellect. Creative products, such as literary, dramatic, musical or artistic or filmic work.
And what can one do with this “intellectual property” right?
Well, copyright has some similar but also different entitlements to other forms of property right, specifically allowing the copyright owner (or owners) to:
copy, lend and distribute their work license others (i.e. grant written permission) to use the copyright owner’s work adapt their work or licence others to do so (e.g. adapt a book into a movie) sell their created work – their intellectual property – to others, and, importantly… have powers to stop wrongful infringement of those rights by third parties, i.e. the copying and exploitation of the copyright owner’s work without their permission, as well as… obtain recompense in the form of compensation or damages for infringement
