This is incorrect as far as title 17 goes, copyright only gives control over making copies and public performance, there must be a contract for any additional restrictions. See http://www.theyscrewedusagain.com if you want some good info for your paper. I would suggest you take a look specifically at the quote from the 1908 congress that extended copyright law to cover music as well, pretty interesting stuff. http://www.theyscrewedusagain.com/copyrightact1909.htm Geo.
