I REMEMBER SOMEONE SAYIN ONE TIME...MAKE A COPY OF YOUR SONG ON CD THEN GO TO THE POST OFFICE AND SEND IT TO YOURSELF AT YOUR HOME ADDRESS...WHEN YOU GET IT DON'T OPEN IT..THIS WAY IT'LL BE POSTMARKED ON THAT DATE AND IF ANYONE TRIES TO JACK IT OR SAMPLE SHIT...YOU GOT PROOF THAT YOU HAD IT BEFORE THEY DID.

That's a real good idea OSO,is that what u do sometimes? I heard most people go to a record company to sign papers and all this bullshit to get it copy writed.

 

[LOOTER oF tHE NEW CHURCH]

it is spelled "copyright" by the way

 

[CHRISHOGGALYPSE]

this is fucked up, i was just thinking about this today. and yes that is the best way to do it. it will hold up in any court

 

[FastLane/S::G]

i was given that idea by my cousin who told me it will hold up in court, but some other fools told me otherwise

 

[Sick Wid It]

The poor man's copyright DOES NOT hold up in a court of law. It DOES NOT prove that the person who sent the package to himself composed any music, wrote the lyrics, or anything else.

I almost never come in this forum so if you want to discuss this further then come to "The Studio" forum and school will be in session.

thats also known as the ghetto copyright

oh shit, my bad. i don't think it works with stuff like this where it is artist related. it works on ideas of inventions and things like that i think.
