Did you know your song is already copyrighted the moment you write it? In this lesson, hit songwriters Clay Mills and Marty Dodson break down what most songwriters get wrong about copyright — including the "poor man's copyright" myth, why registering with ASCAP or BMI has nothing to do with your copyright, and when pro songwriters actually bother to officially register a song. Note: Clay and Marty are not lawyers. For legal advice, consult a music attorney.
