     U.S. Constitution gives Congress the power to promote the progress of 
science and useful arts. by securing for limited times to authors and 
inventors. This lead to the Copyright Act of 1976 which defines any works 
associated with a machine or device. There are stiff penalties for copyright 
infringements including copyright infringements and criminal violations. You do 
not need to register a copyright, but if someones infringes on your copyright, 
registering it will give you more protection. Copyright violations can hurt an 
industry, like the music industry, and we all suffer by the lost of jobs and 
effect it has on our economy. To get more information about Copyrights, go to 
the Copyright Office Website at http://www.loc.gov/copyright.
